First Semester Over!

Phil completed his first semester at BYU!

He had a pretty normal workload as far as other students are concerned. 14.5 credit hours. However, he had a HUGELY LARGE workload as compared to other students when you consider:
1. He is Married
2. He has a (now) 17 month old
3. He is the only provider for our family (We would have it no other way!)
4. He is the 1st counselor in the Y.M. Presidency in our Ward
5. He is the assistant Scoutmaster in the ward
6. He is in a program that is in the School of Music, where some classes only count for .5 of a credit hour but take the work of a class that is 3.0 credit hours
7. He is a Branch Manager of a Mortgage Operation and has responsibility over 25+ people.

Despite all this, grades have just come out, and he got a 3.96!! YIPEE!! He got an 'A' in all his classes but one, and in that one he got an A -, which he was very grateful for!

He also figured out his schedule for the remainder of his time at BYU, and he thinks that he can be done with his program by April of 2011. That's only a year away from this Spring! We are all very excited.

Go Go GO!!
