Life Lately

Small life update, Jared is still really enjoying his job at Whirlpool - some days he could do without the commute, but at least he has 2 other guys to carpool with. I am still working for my dad part time at John Meyer Appraisal Co., but my main focus is on my Real Estate career. I am working with Keller Williams. I am so happy that I finally found a job that I love! I a lot of time in jobs that I hated, jobs just to pay bills, and so forth...now I am so excited about working! I told Jared I may become a workaholic...I wish I had like 50 clients so I was SUPER busy...that day will come. Right now I am just thrilled that I finally found a job I want to wake up and go to instead up waking up everyday wanting to bang my head into the wall. I used to find myself trying to fake sick to myself like I was in 2nd grade trying to trick my mom or something. WHEW, glad those days are behind me!

Duke is doing GREAT, he is LOVING Michigan Summers! He swims about once a week, sees family all the time, has made friends with two neighbor dogs, and has several "sun spots" he lays in around the house.

Jared and I just celebrated our 5th Anniversary! In ways I feel we have been married for like 1 year, so 5 was a bit of a shocker! We celebrated by going to Grand Haven, getting ice cream, and walking on the pier. Grand Haven is one of my favorite places! The next day we were in the Grand Rapids Urban Adventure Race which was UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME! I hear there is going to be another one in the Fall and EVERYONE should do it!...Seriously. It is just fun! I am not in the best shape of my life... surprisingly :) ... so I told Jared we were just going for the "Urban Adventure" part...not so much the "race" part. We had tons of fun, I now want to go all over the country in Urban Races (a little different, but a lot the same too) so we will see how that goes.

OH, we also are the reining Kickball Champs! YEAH BABY! We are pretty proud of that! Fall season starts in a couple weeks...better get practicing!

Anyways, life is good, we have a great house, good friends, family, and finally...jobs we like! HOORAY!

TTFN.
