We got our school loans paid off! We decided to celebrate by using the money we would have put toward the next monthly payment to enjoy a night on the town. We went to the Multnomah Jr/Sr Banquet on May 4th and spent the night at the Heathman. The hotel was in walking distance to the banquet and the rain held off, which made for a perfect night. I've never stayed at such a fancy hotel before. We stayed in a corner room on the top floor of the ten-story building and got to sleep on a Tempurpedic bed. (We're thinking about getting one some day.) The hotel staff was great, breakfast was delicious, and I really like valet parking! We had gorgeous downtown views from our room. We enjoyed the banquet at a table for four with the Lockwoods. There was dancing afterwards, but the instruction always lasts way too long so we didn't get much of a chance to practice our swing dancing moves. Thanks, Gina, for letting me borrow your dress!

Congrats you guys! That's a huge accomplishment. The Lord is good.
That is the coolest thing I've heard in a while! I can't wait to pay off my student loans! I'll have to get out of non-profit work to really get 'em done!
Anyway, I think that night out was a really great idea and it's nice to see the Lord smiling on you!
the dress looks SO great on you!
And again, congrats for paying off a loan. Awesome!
