.....and PNCA is Over 500 Students

When I was hired I was told we needed to have an enrollment of 500 students by Fall 2009. Well, at the end of the day yesterday our registrar informed me we had enrolled our 500th student for the upcoming fall. A whole year early!

PNCA is Wait Listing

Today, the school I work for, has instituted its first ever wait list. Although a lot of schools do this, PNCA has long struggled to bring in students. But the last 3 years, especially the last 2, have brought in record numbers of students and we are near capacity. I have never been in this situation and it feels great! Every school I have worked for has been in an aggressive growth mode and took every student that was admitted. PNCA is in a similar situation but the number of students interested in PNCA the last two years has been beyond anything imaginable.

Soooooo cool!

You Will Be Missed Boompa

Many of you who are reading this know that my Grandfather Sweet, Boompa, died late this last week. He was an incredible man and the top dog in the Sweet family for all my life. I have lost another one of my heroes.

Emma, Then and Now

These pictures were taken nearly a year apart. The top picture is her now, the bottom picture is from July 2007.

Alaska Pictures

We recently spent almost a week in Homer, AK. Here are some pictures. We were up there for a wedding (our friends Megan and Jeff). We had a blast. It was our first trip without Emma. We missed her a lot but it was nice to be adults and do what we wanted. Our hotel/condo was right on the water and we had an amazing view (top picture).
