Introduction

Hello everyone! I haven't been a lurker very long at all. My husband and I just got married on 9/23 so I'm moving over from TK. I never did much on the local boards but I thought it'd be nice to get involved!

I'm actually in Kalamazoo, is everyone here pretty much GR?

Ignore the politics and enjoy life!

Re: Introduction

  • Hi JaD. A lot of the girls here are in GR. A few are from the surrounding areas like Allendale, Zeeland and Muskegon to name a few. It's been a little quiet recently but feel free to jump in. :)
  • Welcome!  I currently live in Philly, but grew up in the GR area. 

    DD: 6-24-11

    EDD: 9-20-14

  • Welcome. Tell us some more about you. Did you go to college? How long did you and hubby date? Where did you get married? Pets? Hobbies?

  • HI everyone! Sorry, I disappeared on some other boards for a bit and forgot to check this post!

    I went to WMU with a degree in Secondary ED, English/Earth science but I work for a bank.

    Hubs and I didn't date long, we were close friends for 3 or 4 years, "officially" got together 10/11/11 and married 9/23/2012 so it wasn't long, haha!

    We got married at the Henderson Castle in downtown Kzoo, it was AMAZING! I cannot reccomend Francois Moyet (the owner/master chef) enough. You definitely get what you pay for when you go there.

    We have two pets. I have a redfooted tortoise that came with me, and we got a little bunny a few months ago. Her name is Lady Monty Bunbun and she is 6mo old. Turd we estimate to be about 3 or 4, she will live to 50+ /sigh. That's a whole 'nother story!

    Hobbies? I'm a seriously huge gamer and I can't wait for tomorrow because Halo 4 is coming out and I just bought my brand spankin' new Xbox360 yay! I also enjoy wasting time lurking around on boards, pretending I know how to use my sewing machine, and cooking ridiculous recipes.

    I also torment my bun by putting bows on her and taking pictures, I don't know if that is a hobby or just wierd. :D

    This now makes me want to see a picture of Lady Monty Bunbun with a ribbon in her fur.

    My work blocks photo hosting sites like flikr so I made up a quick page and loaded random photos to it. You'll find some of the bow pictures there :) She is stupidly cute. Tomorrow we're taking her speed dating!! Aka: Rescuing another bun from a shelter. She gets to pick, haha.

  • I agree, she is stupid cute. I love animals but we are not able to have any right now. Thanks for Sharing. 
  • Haha my pleasure. I love any chance to brag on my bunny. Hopefully she behaves tonight on her "Speed dating" and we can come home with another one names Mittens (husband named it in advance, I suppose its better than "Dinner")
