Happy 4th of July everyone!!

Just wanted to update you on how things have been going!! Work went okay for the 1st part of the week. Nothing great, but nothing horrible either. Little Zac has been helping me out with underwriting, becoming my "underwriting apprentice" which is actually kind of fun!! He sent me a really sweet email too, thanking me for all the help I've been giving him. He tried to act like a tough guy, and of course he put that I can't tell anyone at work for fear of tarnishing his reputation!! I found out yesterday that they want me to work early for 2 weeks, which I have no issue with. I wish they gave me a choice, or asked, instead of just saying, "We have no hires coming in, and we need you to help out early, can you do that?" instead of just assuming. Oh well, what can you do!! That should be fun, it's always fun to train someone in, and I guess her name is Kristin too, but I was told it's a crazy spelling, so we shall see! Also she is bilingual, and her other language?!?! RUSSIAN! cool huh, maybe she will have an interest in Russian skating, and then we can talk back and forth and not work, just kidding mom, stop freaking out!!! TODAY: The 4th was a lot of FUN!! I slept in, and we had really good family friends come over, and we basically ate, swam, watched the Twins game, and talked. It's really great to be able to be around other Christians, and to just be together. We had a lot of fun, and I think I am kind of tan!! BTW, who sun burns there ear lobes, I did this last weekend, but it's back to my white color now, but what the hecK!?!? just thought I would throw that in there! I am pretty random!! When the Magnuson's left, mom, dad, and I basically hung out, and relaxed and now I am telling my readers about it!! So nice day off to relax, and it was so nice out!! WEEKEND PLANS: I work tomorrow and Friday, and then after work a bunch of co-workers and I are going rollerblading, Zac said he might go to, so that should be fun!! Then to see Evan Almighty, and just hang out! Good times. I'll let you know how the movie is! Also, Jackie is coming home Saturday and we are FINALLY celebrating dad's b-day (june 23rd!) and Father's day (weekend before that!!) So that will be fun, no working this weekend and pay day Friday! Yah! Well I hope you all had a great 4th!! Love ya!
