I'm a CPA!!!!

I just can't even begin to comprehend all the amazing things that are happening in my life right now. First, I got a promotion at work that is moving me to Arkansas. Then I got engaged. Then I found out on the same day that we got an offer on the house and that I PASSED MY EXAM!!!

After 5 long years of studying, it is finally coming to an end.....sort of. Now I have to pass an ethics exam and pay some more money HA before they will give me the license. However, the hard part is over and I couldn't be more relieved!!!! Once again, God is GOOD!

Thanks to everyone who supported me and prayed for me over the past few years as I studied, passed, failed, laughed, cried, stressed, etc. It was all so worth it! Now I have those three little HARD earned letters after my name.

Megan Walker, CPA (almost) ;)

House is SOLD!

We received an offer on the house after only being on the market two weeks (obviously we haven't closed yet so anything can still happen)!! God is amazing and must really want us to move to Arkansas! ;) It is a huge weight lifted off my shoulders, but it also means this is getting so real. I can't believe that in 2 weeks I will live in Arkansas! Crazy!!!

Home for Sale!!

My house is officially on the market. If you are looking to buy a house (interest rates are at all time low!!), please check out the website HERE!

I'm Engaged!!

Ed and I got engaged Friday before our trip to Chicago! I had no idea because he kept saying he hadn't talked to my dad yet. Well, he lied. HA So Friday we met at my house at 4pm to go to the airport. When I got out of the car, I heard a low, deep voice say, "Ma'am, I'm with homeland security and I have someone who needs to speak with you. Please come with me." I turned around and there was a huge security guard with a black suit, bald head and black sun glasses and he motioned me toward the white stretch HUMMER in the street in front of my house....I was freaked out. Then he opened the door and Ed was on his knee with the ring!!! It was georgous!!! I was totally in my Arkansas t-shirt from work. Not looking good. But it was super special because he caught me off guard and I had no idea!!!!! So we rode to the airport in the limo and had celebration drinks at Tootsies before our flight!



Our trip to Chicago was a blast! The hotel was AWESOME and overlooked the shops on Michigan Avenue and the water! Saturday we shopped, took a segway tour (most fun, EVER!) and then had dinner at MK. They had printed special menus that said congratulations on your engagement. We had a wonderful dinner and then they brought us dessert with congratulations written in chocolate and champagne! Then we went out and met up with some friends for drinks! The next day we went on a shopping spree to try to find my wedding shoes but no one had my size!

Overall, BEST WEEKEND EVER!!! :) Everything about it was perfect and just confirmed I'm the luckiest woman alive!!

National College Apparel Day

Every year to kick off football season our office lets us wear college apparel. As usual, I woke up this morning and slipped into my Kentucky Wildcats t-shirt...GO CATS!! But much to my surprise, I walked into my office and found an Arkansas Razorbacks t-shirt hanging over my desk chair. I just knew "the girls" were up to this and wanted to break me in for my upcoming move to "the Natural State", but then they came out of their offices and they were wearing them, too!!! Almost everyone in my dept had Arkansas shirts on and they said, "If Megan is moving to Arkansas then we are team Arkansas"! How precious! I almost cried!! It's been such a fun day "pretending" we are all Razorback fans and snorting around the office. Soui!

*Disclaimer: No one in my office is ACTUALLY a Razorback fan and I appreciate them sacrificing their team pride to make me feel special (plus it cut down on the massive amounts of tacky orange)!
