New Years Eve

Since it was our last new years in town, I always wanted to be on top of Zane Grey where they drop the Pinecone from. For those who don't know, the Pine Cone Drop is a tradition of Flagstaff, and was even featured on MSN's Strangest New Years Eve Traditions. This year, we managed to get seats for us and 4 of our friends. The meal was super expensive, and pretty gross. They have good food as it is, but they changed their menu for a special New Years Menu, which was over priced, and fancy food that is more difficult to make. We were right in the front for the infamous Pine Cone drop and was able to see the whole thing!

Flagstaff stepped it up, and added fireworks this year!

Last summer, Aaron and I went to Hawaii for a wedding. Prior to the wedding, we hiked the Napali coast in Kauai. This photo was one of the first views of the sea that we saw after starting the trail. We were there for 5 days/4 nights and it was an amazing hike!

I'm passing this onto... Justin, Bayard's Den, and Sara

Stella in the bath!!

I threatened to show this to the first boy she brought home!

Thanksgiving 08

Hey, I think i know that guy!

After hosting Thanksgiving dinner in Flagstaff, Aaron and I headed to Kingman to visit family. It was a great few days, and it was really fun to see Stella again. She has gotten so big! Notice who the picture is that Stella is holding... she was naturally drawn to it!

Halloween Pt.1 & 2

Halloween was celebrated twice this year... one at Candace's house, and of course our annual Halloween party, on Halloween night. It was by far one of the best halloween parties. There wasn't as many people there, but, everyone had a blast! It was a good group of people and everyone was socializing and getting along! Although my costume completely changed the night before, it turned out great. I was also able to see my friend Katy in Flagstaff, who I hadn't seen for about 15 years!

Kona had a great time as well..

Fall is in full swing, and one day we decided to take a walk in the woods before dinner. The leaves weren't in prime yet, but regardless, it was still a great time!
