Spring Hill College, here we come....


Earlier this year and throughout the summer, Christopher's main focus was deciding where he would go to college. We went to a large college fair, considered several schools and even did a site visit to one. A lot of thought and prayer went into his decision. He finally decided that Spring Hill College was his first and only choice of schools. This is a small Catholic College in Mobile, Alabama - undergraduate students total approximately 1500. Everything about this school was perfect for him and his personality. They also play Division III basketball which means he has a great chance at getting to play at the college level.

In August he applied and has been anxiously awaiting a decision from the school. It arrived today!!!

He was accepted!!! To top that news, he was also awarded an academic scholarship totaling $66,000!

He was so excited!!!! I was even more excited - lots of screams of joy and hugs and pure excitement!!!!! I can't even put into words how proud I am today.

We still have one more thing he hopes to accomplish and that is to play basketball for Spring Hill. We have spoken to the Coach and will send all of his stats and game videos at the end of this season. We hope Christopher has a great Senior Basketball Season and is able to secure a spot on the Badger Team...

I am a PROUD Mama!!!!!!!!
