Commitment Ceremony

On Saturday, June 7th, Gwen and I had a Commitment Ceremony to celebrate our marriage together. As you probably know, we were married on August 25th of last year. We "just signed those papers", as I am fond of saying, so fast that we didn't get to celebrate or share the experience with our family and friends, which is why we wanted to do this celebration last weekend. My parents and many others worked really hard to get their backyard ready to host the big event, and it looked great. Many of our friends and family members were there, and we were really pleased with the way it went.

Flyball Frenzy!

So... Dave and I went to the Rockies game on Monday and the Rocks actually WON! Wahoo... finally they won another game. But that is not the big news. Dave won a free round trip airline ticket with Frontier by catching two fly balls between the 5th and 6th inning. Every game they pick someone out of the crowd and between innings they go down on the field and launch two flyballs to them. If the fan catches both balls they get a round trip airline ticket from Frontier. Dave has been to hundreds of games and on Monday he actually got picked! He caught both balls and was on the jumbotron, it was really exciting. Here are some pictures of Dave doing his thing. He's like a total rockstar now!

Dave and I just had an amazing adventure in Hawaii. We had the opportunity to visit one of Dave's childhood friends while he was finishing studying at University of Hawaii.

We were able to snorkel, spear fish, swim with sea turtles, eat yummy fish, take in the sights, watch the sunset over the ocean, hike in the jungle, jump 40 feet into a waterfall, enjoy the shopping in Waikiki, drink our fair share of beer (mostly Dave and Tyler), and just relax with each other. We stayed mostly with Tyler but a few nights we stayed at the Hale Koa. This is a military hotel right on the beach in Honolulu. The weather was beautiful while we were in Hawaii and we were thankful for our own personal tour guide named Tyler.
