I'm now married to Mike and we're expecting our first child the beginning of December. We're very excited. We just bought a home that we'll be moving into in June.

| 1996 | (Karmeisool) Austin, Andrea | Nov 16, 2005 at 08:08:36 | REUNION UPDATE: The reunion date/place has been set! June 17th, 2006 (Fathers' Day weekend) at Canterbury Castle in lake Orion. Hopefully Fathers' Day weekend will work well especially for classmates that have moved out of state. Expect your invitation in the spring. Visit the class website: http://west96.edictspaces.com.

Please contact me at andrea@edict.com or 248-765-0023 if you have any information, contact numbers, or would like to help. In 2000 I graduated from Michigan State University with a BFA in graphic design. I work at Edict Incorporated...a web-developement company in Rochester as the senior layout designer. Eric Austin (class of 94) and I were married in August 2001. I am so happy to be married to such a wonderful man, I couldn't have asked for a kinder more loving person with which to spend the rest of my life. He has a degree in Architecture from Lawrence Tech University and this is his 11th year owning Austin Brick Pavers. In addition to outdoor brick work, his company does ceramic tile, marble and stone installation. We started out on Hummer Lake in Ortonville in a little 450 square foot house. We built our dream home next door so now the little house is a guest cottage. Eric designed the big house for his senior project at Lawrence. We have three little dogs: Pepper a 4 year old Jack Russell, Daisy a 4 year old sheppard mix and Diesel a 5 month old toy rat terrier (only 4 pounds!). We are very excited with the latest news that we are expecting a baby on June 11th! I'm glad to see how everyone is doing! |
| 1996 | Belprez, Nicole | 3/31/2000 at 3:18:57 PM | Howdy! I am currently attending the University of Michigan-Flint where I am in my second semester of the BSN Nursing program. I am now at Hurley Medical Center two days a week working with many patients. I will be graduating in the year 2002 and I am excited to get out and work. I am still undecided on what field in nursing I want to pursue, but I am thinking that Labor and Delivery or a Wound nurse will suit me. I may change my mind later as I experience more areas of study. I have too little experience right now to totally decide. I am still dating my highschool sweetheart Craig Cummings (5 years!), but there are no plans for marriage yet. I would like to finish school first and get established in my career. We did, however, buy 11 acres of land in Otter Lake approximately 2 years ago. It has come a long way and eventually we plan on building our dream home there. Since I don't have a family yet, you all get to hear about my property. Craig and I are proud to announce the future development of our 1,100 foot driveway (April 2000). haha Well I hope all is well with you and yours. I am always excited to get e-mail so drop me a line and let me know how you are all doing. nbelprez@hotmail.com |

Afterward, I moved to New York City (Manhattan) where I work for a fantastic group that develops and funds global businesses - counterintuitively - its an extremely creative position.

| 1996 | Bolte, Steven | Mar 25, 2009 at 07:56:39 | Hey everyone, apparently i was pretty slow in finding out about this website. Well, the update on me is: I graduated from Mich Tech with a Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering in Dec of 01 and got a job with the Department of the Navy, working at Norfolk Naval Shipyard as a Nuclear Engineer. It has been a good job, can't complain. Got married in Dec of 06 to a wonderful girl named Becky. No kids yet, just a lab mix puppy and a collie puppy. We bought our first house on the water in Hampton, Va (near Virginia Beach) together in July of 07 and kept the houses we already owned as rental properties, so far that's going well.

| 1996 | Cantley, Chris | 7/14/2003 at 7:55:33 AM | Not too much new here. Still at the gas station, but with the way the economy is going, I'm better off sticking at a job where I have experience and decent pay. The marriage is off... after I had surgery in July 02, she showed her true colors. Better that I find out before than after, right? College plans are still on hold... lack of money. I have one beautiful orange shorthair cat named Spunky who just turned 2. I spend a good portion of my free time on the computer, though I recently made some antique-looking paper for a card for my mom's 50th birthday. It turned out really great, although she wasn't thrilled about me calling her "old." Hope everyone out there is doing well... I'd like to hear from you guys sometime! |
| 1996 | (Christman)Capistrant, Amiee | 3/20/2004 at 4:43:40 AM | FINALLY!!!! We have our little boy. Well he wasn't so little when he was born.

Victoria just turned 5 and starts kindergarden this fall in grandblanc. Kristina will be 3 in May and will continue with her pre school program. I am now staying at home with my children. I want to be involved with school activities for my kids and it is hard to do while working full time. Hope everyone is doing well! |

I am anxious to go to a 10 year reunion, very disappointed that there was no 5 year "show off". My wife, Maya, wouldn't let me sleep if I didn't mention her (ha-ha). Seriosly, I'm happily married (3yrs) and am waiting for my first miracle (Alexandria Elizabeth) in October some time.

| 1996 | (Nowak) Leach, Renee | Jan 14, 2008 at 08:22:46 | Hahaha, that's funny, my name is in here, but spelled totally wrong. Anyway, I have seen worse. Not much has happened in my life. Got married June 19, 2004, almost divorced in 2006. Had a daughter December 15, 2004. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Not sure about terrible 2s. She got worse when she hit 3. I named her after my sister, Rachel, who did pass away in 2000. Went to Mott until 1998, then had to quit due to circumstances beyond my control. I have thought about going back, but for now I am very happy being a stay at home mom. Moved out of Lapeer in 1998, came back for a couple months at a time a few times, but now I have been living back here for almost 2 years. Pretty bad when I can be walking around stores and not know anyone, but my husband who grew up in Flint and West Branch sees someone he knows every time we go in a store. Anyone who would like to get in touch with me, feel free to email me at ren21_2000@yahoo.com. I do usually delete anything that looks like spam before reading it, so please put something about Lapeer West in the subject. Hope to hear from you soon. Ok, I will stop talking now. |

| 1996 | (Mapley)Riedel, Kristin | 9/12/1999 at 9:38:57 PM | Isn't the real world a lot different then the petty high school life?! I am currently living in Lake Orion with my husband, Brian, and daughter,Kennedy. Right after high school I went to cosmetology school and received my license to do hair. A couple months after receiving my license Brian and I got married in Toronto. Six months after being married we decided to start a family. Four months into my pregnancy we bought a house near Bald Mountain Recreation (still Lake Orion). On January 20th, 1999 our daughter made into world. That's when Brian and I decided that it would be the best if I would stay home until our bank account says otherwise. I still do hair, but just outside of our house.I hope that all of your lives have turned out the way you have imagined them to. SEE YA! |

| 1996 | Sawvel, Chris | Jul 7, 2005 at 07:29:53 | Hello all. I have pretty much been working full-time and attending school full/part time for a really long time... I have been working at American Axle as for nearly 8 years, currently as a 1st shift plant supervisor. I just finished my Associates in Business from Oakland Community College and will continue for my Bachelors at Oakland University this fall. I have been living in Lake Orion since 1997, and have become a permanent resident when I bought a house back in 2001. I have been single since age 21 and seem to enjoy the wife/girlfriend/kid free life all too much. Taking care of a house, going to school year round, and working 6 days a week sux, but it leaves just enough time to go golfing, hunting and fishing (but I suck at all 3 of them) so I just party on the lake. Take care everyone, hope to see you next year. |

I have exchanged my horrible Waugh last name that caused me so much grief in school for the "most common name in the telephone book" as Emilie Bodoin calls it. :) My husband, Adam, and I and our puppy, Morgan (she's a chocolate lab, 6 months), are living in our new home in the northwest side of Ann Arbor--the home of the University of Michigan wolverines, our alma mater. I graduated in 2000 with an engineering degree and am working for Toyota on body design for the 2004 Solara. Adam graduated the year before from the Business school and works for Comerica Bank in downtown Ann Arbor. Currently, I only keep regular contact with Emilie Bodoin and Chris Palte from our class, but I love reading these postings to see how everyone's lives are turning out, so please keep updating. If anyone wants to get ahold of me, you can email at twaugh@ttc-usa.com. (haven't gotten the email address updated yet) |

| 1996 | Tisch, Rob | Apr 26, 2006 at 12:18:59 | After high school I went to college and become a cop. Shortly after that I got discharged but I don't like to talk about it. Now I'm the trailer park supervisor at Sunnyvale Trailer Park which is a lot like being a cop. Basically you have to make sure the park is running smoothly. That means stopping people from using illegal drugs and not letting greasy recidivists bring the park down. On a happier note, I met my girlfriend Angie back in November of 99. In December of 2002, we had a beautiful girl, Lillian. No marriage yet, maybe in a couple years we will try. Don't get me wrong I love weddings and I plan on having at least 3, but we just aren't ready yet. Talk to ya later, Peace |
| 1996 | Weckle, Dave | 3/5/2002 at 1:52:18 PM | Hello everyone.Lets see where to start off. I attended ITT Technical Institute in Troy for 2 years. I received my Associates Degree in Computer Science. Since then I was working at Lear Corporation in Southfield as a Studio Engineer. I've recently left them to work for my dads company, Valley Building & Repair. I'm thinking about going back to school for an Architecual Degree and to get my Builders License. I got married on May 18th 2001 to Amy Reamer class of 97. The wedding was excellent and we went to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico for our honeymoon. Playa Del Carmen is 40 miles south of Cancun and basically right across from Cozumel. Rob Tisch was my best man, and I also had Martin Dudas, Greg Weckle, Chad Nuckles, and Chris Griswold stand with me. No kids yet, maybe in a couple years we will try. Don't get me wrong I love kids and we plan on having at least 3, but we just aren't ready yet. We purchased the house I grew up in from my parents, which is in Ortonville. Well I guess that's it. Feel free to contact me if anyone wants to. |
