Coyotes Rookie Camp '09

Travis was asked to officiate the Coyotes Rookie camp again which is pretty cool - no pun intended... sorry.

Lewis Family Reunion!

Mom's branch of the Lewis family tree - this thing is huge and very cool.

The beginning of the auction - we had a real live auctioneer this year!

Oh! This bird... my mom was not convinced that this bird was okay. He was fine. Just trying to get some shut eye. This was at Uncle John and Aunt Wanda's house. They have a great place in West Des Moines. Quite a few of us had homemade ice cream and cake at their house.

Nebraska

This is my Gramma Anna Belle and her little house in Arapahoe. Hi Gramma!






Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha!! I would love to go again sometime when my Devils are playing here... maybe in 2010? It was pretty cool to see in person.











Come on! Look at these faces! Gunnar's Uncle and Cousin: Angus and Hannah. Uncle Norman had some new puppies and some that were about 4 months old, but they were too cute for me to think about taking their pictures.

Happy Anniversary!

To celebrate our anniversary we went to San Diego and Sea World.

The camera wasn't charged and we forgot the charger in Mexico in May, so this was one of the three shots I took of Travis 'petting' a sting-ray.

The weather was great and we had a good time.

Holy Cow

Welp... this is it. The shocked and excited faces of a couple who just found out they're going to have a baby.

The next few months were pretty uneventful. A lot of sleeping and staying indoors. It was a long summer.

Paramore and No Doubt!!

So excited, were Leigha and I, to find out that one of our favorite bands, Paramore, was coming in concert! Then to find out they were coming with No Doubt?!! We were stoked! I was also excited that Sonji decided to come along on the Memorial Day adventure...

Unfortunately, my taxi planning was off and we missed the beginning of Paramore's set.

But we did enjoy the rest of the concert and managed to make it home safe and sound. Little did we know it would be my last adult beverage evening for awhile. A great way to go into a hiatus! Thanks, ladies!

MEXICO!

We finally took our Honey Moon trip to Cabo San Lucas in May


Self photo on the plane - we were really excited


Land... from the plane... I thought it was cool at the time.


WHOA! Is that kid flipped on his head? This is the Pacific Ocean side of the water. Very strong tides apparently - we watched some kids surfing it, or trying to, for a little bit.





Los Arcos! All I could think of was Goonies.


One of the pools... very nice views. Our resort had guacamole available all the time that was soooo good. Too much American food was in the buffet, but we had a great steak dinner one night. Travis got to eat a lot of seafood while we were there which made him happy.


Lobsters! - Travis was excited, but he didn't get any.




We did leave our resort for one night and went into town. Lots of walking, lots of offers from local 'vendors' and a little bit of beer. Not bad. Oh yeah - some Stanley Cup Hockey too.


View from our room - Trish gave me some tips and we asked if there were any better rooms available when we checked in. It worked and we got a bit of an upgrade.







Time to go home. Our trip was well worth the wait, but we missed Gunnar and everyone else back at home.
