Our Last Day in the States

Well the title pretty much tells the tale, today we depart for England after a lunch with Washington past Rhodes scholars and a keynote address by the current Warden of Rhodes House Donald Markwell. We could not be more excited about any experience besides maybe our wedding but we didn't really get to hang out a ton before that happened to share in the anticipatory excitement so this is really awesome. I will be posting a longer bit in the future that will touch on some of what Katie posted yesterday but the past week has been an incredible opportunity in DC to meet all of our new friends. It has been an indescribable time to be presented with the magnitude of the gift of this scholarship and in many ways the responsibilities that are concurrently innate upon its distribution. We are the heirs of blessing, fortune, and opportunity and there is a path of responsibility that goes along with this scholarship leading into the future and we cannot wait to embark on this journey.
