SOUTH BEND!!

I am now an official Notre Dame fan! Yay for South Bend, Indiana. I have had this irrational, completely unexplainable love for South Bend ever since I found out there was such a place. (And sadly enough, I didn't know that Notre Dame was in Indiana until we moved to Toledo. It seemed like it would be an east coast kind of school for some reason.) So, I'm way excited. The other choices we had were all good, and it would have been lovely to be anywhere on the list, but I'm excited we matched with our #1 choice. Woo-hoo! I'm all smiles today!

So impressive, John!
Emilee, when I come to terms with Whiting, Indiana, and milemarker 125 on I-80, we'd love to visit, and we'd come bearing gifts.
Congrats! We'll be so sad to see you go!

Congrats! Dave went to a BYU/ND football game a couple of years ago at south bend and fell in love with the town too. I'm sure it'll be great. How fun to get to be ND fans for a few years. What is John's speciality?
