Summer '09 Blurred By...

We tried to wrap all of our summer fun into the month of July.
Here's a few highlights of our whirlwind, fun summer:

Chris rented two awesome jet-skis, and we made our way down to Lake Powell to spend a week with Becca's family, as well as good friends, the Kammeyer-Smith's. It was Chris' first time to Powell and he LOVED IT!!! We think we'll do it again! :)


Then it was camping with Chris' family (mom, stepdad, two sisters and their husbands, niece & nephew) at Guanella Pass over Becca's birthday weekend. So fun! That, also, is a yearly must do for the family!


A quick trip to the Renaissance Fair with Chris' dad and stepmom....

...Where they enjoyed the turkey legs!...


...And my prince saved me from the dragon!


And then Becca took off to Utah for a week to visit her family! Details on that trip to follow :) Our August weekends are filled with visits to/from friends, birthday dinners, Becca's birthday present from Chris: tickets to Cirque du Soleil, and then the Colorado National Speedway night. Whew! All-in-all it's been great, and we can't wait for future events! We LOVE being with both of our families!

And Away We Go!


This is my first time doing a blog, and I'm a bit nervous :) I've enjoyed learning about my friends and their families, so I decided to do a blog about Chris and I. We've had a lot of adventures already, in our short 8 months together. A little background: Chris and I met through a mutual friend of ours, not as a setup, but just hanging out at a comedy show. For Chris, it was love (or lust?) at first sight. ;) On our first date, we both knew we would spend the rest of our lives together. We feel we've known each other for an eternity, and are so excited that we finally found each other!
Feel free to comment, ask questions, etc. We want all of our friends and family to see this- 'cause we'll be putting pictures of YOU on here, too :) We love you all, and hope you're excited to read all about us!
