Backyard Wedding

Congratulations to The Bride and Groom

Christina & Dane

They were married in Hesperia in a small intimate ceremony followed by a beautiful backyard reception.

We Ate, Danced, Mingled & Enjoyed DELICIOUS Cake.

I was lucky enough to make it to their wedding (the last time I saw Bill's cousins was at our wedding). It was such a fun day. I got to hang out with most of bill's family. A Ellen & U Gary.... A Linda & U Tim...... U Bob (christina's father) and A Lori & U Joe.

I love bill's family especially Ellen and Gary. They have always been so sweet and good to Bill and I. Whenever we head up North they always let us crash....

Happy Birthday Jillian...

Happy Bithday Jillian!

Last night a group of us went out to dinner at Tokyo Hibashi. I've never been there before but it was pretty good food, the best part was the chef...

He put on a great show and got us all involved! Throwing shrimp at us (almost everyone catching them in their mouths) even little RJ "caught" a shrimp.... Making the classic "Volcano" and even holding flames in is hands...

The Weekenders....

Bill and I Celebrated our anniversary by going to dinner at The Melting Pot in Irvine. I love this restaurant. It's quiet, intimate, and just good fun. We got to spend 2 1/2 hours together talking, exchanging little gifts, and just enjoying each others company.... the reasons we got married in the first place.

Thursday Morning....

Bill and I got up and ready to hit the road for our camping trip at Lake Nacimiento. Danny (bill's buddy) met us at our house at about 8am. After packing the truck to the brim we started the engine and hit the open road.

It took us almost 6 hours and 2 pit stops to arrive at the campsite. I love camping it reminds me of all the fun family camping trips we went on as a kid.

We were meeting 3 other couples out there. It was a great time. I hope we can make this a tradition for every year!

3 Blissful Years...

Today Bill and I celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary, I think back to when we first met, and honestly can not remember a life without him. I can not believe I found such a wonderful man. My life has been forever changed and truly blessed to have him in it. Bill has brought more meaning into my life than I thought possible. I'm so lucky to go through this journey with Bill. I can not wait to see what the future has in store for US....
