So it’s been a while since my last post. I’ve been busy. We managed to get our apartment unpacked (with the help of Michael and Jody). We love the place we live. Our unit is huge (~1250 sq. feet) and our patio is ~30 feet from one of our complex’s pools. [...]

Laurie and I were married on August 4th. The bachelor party the night before was pretty tame (we mostly played Magic the Gathering and made a twinkie cake). Me and Ted and my dad and Dirtbag won the wedding golf tournament. Laurie and I went on our honeymoon in Zihuatanejo (slide show [...]

Every Spring, the Bagley College of Engineering holds a week-long event called Engineer’s Week (E-Week). During this event, the different engineering majors compete against each other in various contests.
