McDaris Update

Hi Everyone!

So obviously I haven't been checking the blog as often as I should! As for us, we have been busy, busy, busy! In April I went to New York City with my mom, Aunt Mary and cousins Michelle & Tonya. When they flew out, I stayed, Parrish flew in, and we spent a couple of days in Brooklyn with some friends from college that live there. It was all great fun! After that, I had the Walk for work, which went really well. We were able to raise over $65,000, which felt great...it was a lot of fun and a lot of work! I have also officially finished my MBA, and am just waiting on OSU to send my degree to me. Parrish is also getting ready to finish his degree...only 5 more hours and he'll have his M.A. in Ministry, Ethics & Culture.

And lastly...we have lived in Tulsa now for 4 years and moved here for the purpose of getting our graduate degrees. Since we are almost finished with that process, we are taking applications for our new city. Right now the top 2 contendors are New York (yes, we are fully aware that the cost-of-living there is quite high) and Denver. If you have suggestions, please let us know! One requirement...it has to be bigger than Tulsa.

Love you all!
Meredith & Parrish

p.s. Welcome Shelby!!!

Congratulations on finishing your degree!!! I think I have letters, too, but I'm not sure what they are (M. Ed.?) Oh well. And I love your photos! I can give you lots of moving tips, but no advice on destinations. If you move to New York, expect lots of visitors. I want to see a show on Broadway.

My vote goes to New York also! I will sleep on the floor if you will let me come visit. In case you haven't considered it, I hear the DFW area is a great place to live...right Linda and Julianne?

Love your blog, Miss MBA! Congrats to both of you. Ill tag along with the girls to see you in NYC. But DFW has good things too. Of course, Monica's favorite is Chicago. I'm sure God will place you right in the middle of where you are supposed to roost.
