Darin and I have been wanting to go to a new Italian restaurant in town for some time. We love Italian. Unfortunately after checking out what seemed to be a delicious menu with not so delicious prices, we decided that Cortina would have to wait for a special occasion. Six months later our time has come!
Last night, Darin, Toby and I got semi-dolled up after receiving a very special letter in the mail. Darin was accepted into the UNLV Dental School, class of 2012! Yes! We were so excited. Darin couldn't believe it and I can't imagine the relief he must have felt! Congratulations Darin!
Just by chance, they sat us next to the fire place. How did they know we were having a special night!? We splurged on dinner and dessert and Toby was an absolute angel ,even though we were there past his bedtime. On the way home we decided to stop by my mom's house and when we walked in she and Whitney had some celebratory sparkling cider and a chocolate satin pie waiting to honor him! It was so much fun. My mom really has a way of letting people know that she loves them. She knows how to make people feel special!
What a journey. Darin has worked SO hard and clearly UNLV has recognized what an asset he is and will be to their school and to the community. I am so lucky to have him and I couldn't be more proud. I LOVE YOU!
