If you haven't heard, I started my new job this past Monday at Venomix. I am doing research -sort of. Right now its not so much research as production of protein but essentially we are trying to make safe pesticides using toxins isolated from spider venom. I LOVE it! For many reasons: the people are awesome (all 3 coworkers and 2 bosses), the work is fun and interesting, my schedule is normal, and I'm not sleep deprived for the first time in probably a year and a half. :) The commute will probably get old (to Kalamazoo) but I guess I can't have everything perfect.
Scott and I have gotten SO much done for the wedding, it feels so good to cross a ton of stuff off the list. Yet it keeps adding up, every day there is more to do. Cake tasting was fun, but I didn't want to feel like a pig so we didn't taste too much. We went before dinner so I was hungry and the cake was so good! I better get some on our wedding night.

Happy New Year
The past month has been a little crazy. It started with this:
Yup, that's my foot in the ocean. I got to spend a few days in Puerto Rico for work, although I spent way too much time working. A toasty 85 or so degrees here in San Juan. :)
Scott and I had some fantastic dinners at our respective work parties. No pictures from mine but we went to the Melting Pot - fondue is always good! Scott's was fancy, at the Devos Place. Some weird entertainment though, but all in all pretty fun. :)
Then Christmas - when we got home Sunday after being at Scott's parents, Scott had to shovel out the dining room after the dogs came bounding in.
The dogs' Christmas present was fun for a couple minutes til we turned our backs. :)
Scott and I finally got to open our presents! I love this picture because you can really see how much bigger Spot is than Daisy now.
the toothbrush was from the dogs. :)
Yay, Planet Earth!
This was right before Scott finally shaved so I guess this was a few days after Christmas. I thought he should grow it a little while longer but he wouldn't go to church like that.
I probably have some more pictures from my family party last week, I'll get to that eventually. I did start my new job yesterday though, so far so good. Its so strange to have a normal schedule! Its nice to be back in a lab though, and the people there are great. I'm going to be sick of the commute pretty soon though, especially if it doesn't stop snowing!
