Catching up

Things have been rather busy around the Kamermayer home lately. Let's see.... as soon as we got back from Eureka Ryan started interviewing for jobs. He was looking for something along the line of diesel mechanic. Sure enough he received several job offers, but only one would really work with his school schedule. He is now working for a telecommunications company in Edmond (that is actually based out of Pennsylvania). He is basicalyl starting their maintenance program from scratch. So far he LOVES it and is excited that it is a normal 7:30-5 job instead of one of the crazy shifts the other places offered him to work.

Next exciting event in life: We bought a house! We will be closing the middle of July to move into a house in Sonador, a new community built by Home Creations. It is located in the Deer Creek School district and the best part - it comes with an underground storm shelter in the garage! I am kind of a freak when it comes to tornadoes so this is just perfect for me. It is exciting to think that we will have a brand new house, but also intimidating. No more landlords to take care of a broken air conditioner or a slow running garbage disposal.

Easter this year was a special one. We went to the Japanese church with Ryan's family in the morning and then spent Easter dinner at my parents' with the whole family. My little nieces even enjoyed an Easter egg hunt - although our beagle, Molly, nearly ruined the fun by opening the eggs that we "hid".

Of course our lives are still filled with lots of social activity. :) Ryan's parents invited us to the 2012 Integris Gala, a semi-formal event with a fancy dinner, drinks and dancing. It was fun to get all dolled up! One of my best friends, Jenny, came back to visit from Arizona so I got to spend some time with her. I also have visited with Cristina (who lives in Lawton but is about to move to Korea for two years with her husband) and Lauren (who lives in Austin, TX) so it's been nice to be able to catch up! Ryan and I enjoyed the all day Norman Musical Festival this year along with our friends Shelby, Beau, Joy and Joe.

I have been on an exercise kick lately. I joined an all female gym a few months back and I go about 5 times a week. I have been focusing on cardio (treadmill, eliptical, and Zumba) but will start bringing weight training into my routine. Ryan's going to create a workout for me. :)

I guess that pretty much sums up the last month. This weekend we will celebrate our friend Joey's 28th birthday on Friday and Stephanie's 30th on Saturday, followed by Mother's Day on Sunday. It is going to be a busy weekend!
