Changes are FUN!

In April, Justin and I will graduate from LDS Business College each with an Associate's Degree in Accounting and a Certificate of Accounting.

Yes... The rumors are true. We are moving to Missouri that following week (the week after graduation). Justin and I are getting assistance from Mom and Dad Furnell when they come out to our graduation ceremony. We (Justin and I) will be staying until Easter Sunday and we WILL attend one night of the Stringham/Pritchett reunion. Excited to use those new sleeping bags Dad!

After a quick shower and packing Suki in the car, we will be on our way. A straigh-through drive to the land of our desire!

Many circumstances and events were taken into consideration for this decision. One of the major decision-making events happens to be that my time as a student-employee at LDS Business College is up after graduation. I will no longer be a student so my position goes to someone else. Finding an employer willing to hire someone knowing that they were moving shortly after they start seems pretty impossible to me.

Justin and I have made the decision that is best for us and as a married couple, that needs to be our main focus. Plus... I ABSOLUTELY love Missouri! I'm excited to be back in a "small" town atmosphere, and to meet lots of amazing people!

See you there when the time comes! Don't worry... We'll keep in contact.

The Church is TRUE!

Winter 2011 Semester

Classes started today. Justin and I only have three classes together this semester! And they all happen to be accounting courses. I am also taking a religion class, the continuation of the Church History course I started last semester, and Advanced Quickbooks. Yes... That is a total of four accounting classes! Total of 13 credit hours.

This semester will be a little more laid back than last semester but I have a lot of personal goals to work on this semester for improvement in my life and in my outward appearance! Good luck with the new semester everyone who is in school!

End of the Semester!

SUBJECT:  Thank You

Dear LDS Business College,

Thank you so much for the wonderful learning enviroment that we had the opportunity to experience from September 13-December 16, 2010. Having such wonderful instructors such as Bro. Schreiner, Bro. Finlinson, Bro. Newman, Sis. Ward, and Bro. Krauel, really enhanced our learning experience! Not to mention the amazing ties to the spirit that were felt during every class. Thank you for the loads of homework we experienced and the painful carpal tunnel incurred while writing all of our essays.

Thank you for the warm atmosphere and the wonderful technology currently present in the college. Throughout this semester, we have learned that all of the blood, sweat, and tears accumulating on our textbooks were not in vain due to our wonderful grades and increase in testimony, and definitely a stronger testimony of prayer has been built.

From this wonderful experience this semester with 17 credit hours, a spouse, and 18 hours of work, I have learned that education is important, but sleep is even more important than we give credit. As a result of taking all these wonderful classes at LDS Business College, the semester break will be spent sleeping, eating, Sleeping, showering, SlEePiNg, visiting, and SLEEPING!

Looking forward to our last and final semester here at the college!

Sincerely,



Justin & Mitzi Furnell

**In all honesty, this semester was really amazing! I met some amazing people with strong testimonies. I also met several people who got married, are getting married, or should get married soon. It is wonderful how strong the spirit is right as you walk in the building. I am so grateful for all that we have been given and I plan on taking all that I have learned and teaching my children (when the Lord sees fit).

Happy Holidays!

Furnell Family
