- J traveled to residency programs, interviewed, and was accepted into the Michigan State Orthopedic surgery residency
- We skied the winter away in Colorado
- We thoroughly enjoyed a Seahawks Super Bowl victory (while living in the rival city of Denver!)
- We bought our first home (more pictures to come in our Home Tour)
- We celebrated J's graduation from medical school, A's completion of her graduate teaching program, and said bye to our amazing friends in Denver
- We made the move from Denver to Lansing
- We took a post-graduation vacation to the Dominican Republic
- A got a job teaching high school math in the Lansing Area
We also celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary this past July! Hard to believe it's gone by so fast. It has been a fun adventure and we can honestly say we are more in love today than ever before. We have added a section on the blog for posts about our thoughts, challenges, and adventures in marriage as we pursue #unordinarylove and seek to #staymarried for life.
Lastly, and probably most exciting, we are having a baby! Ariel is due April 1, 2015 and we couldn't be more thrilled! We are attempting to prepare ourselves for "new normals" and are excited to see what God has in store for us as parents.
One other thing you will notice on the blog, is that we both began developing new hobbies. J took an interest to building furniture (shout out to Andy for an introduction to the hobby, and Ana White for many of the free plans), which has become very handy as we've settled into our new home. Ariel has become a talented beautifier and decorator, producing some amazing DIY projects. As we continue to post updates, you will find that many of them are on projects around our house as we seek to build and beautify.
Stay tuned for future posts about random happenings in our lives as we seek to remain sane in the craziness of residency, teaching, marriage, and parenting!
J + A
