About me: Recent Family News: We have reached the end of our second year of marriage! Two years down, several more to go!
*We both started taking some college classes again at Kirkwood. We are both taking American Sign Language (ASL), however Tonya is taking the full interpreter program for it and Matt is only taking ASL's I-IV with a few business classes.
*We bought our first house! We closed on it May 29th. We are still currently living in Cedar Rapids. (Yes, the house was on the list of things to do before kids. Tonya's already trying to revise the list.)
Tonya: Started a new job this past year working for Mercy Medical Center. She teaches CPR classes for them, and enjoys what she does. She only wishes there were more hours right now.
Matt: Matt also started a new job this past year. Hard to believe, but he actually left Target. He started working for PMX last June. The upside was better pay and hours, but the down side is that he got laid off at the beginning of February due to a reduction in business.--Update: Matt started working at Hy-Vee as an assistant manager about a month after getting laid off from PMX.
On a side note, we have lost several of our beloved pets this past year. In the beginning of the year, our betta fish Mr. Shramek passed away. In July, Sheena was put to sleep. She was Matt's shetland sheepdog of several years. She lived a long life and was surrounded with loved ones on her last day. Finally, one of our twin rabbits, Spazz, died a few days before Christmas.
