    Here are a few of our pictures from our trek. We learned that there’s really no way to capture the majesty of the landscape that is the Himalaya. We tried, though.

    Jamie and I spent the first week of August in Cancun. It was our first time to Cancun, and we really enjoyed it! As usual, our “let’s just relax” trip turned in to “oh, I guess we did a lot” trip… happens every time.

    So long to an old friend

    With a saddened heart, it pains me to say that we had to put Gali down on Sunday, June 27th. Gali was part of our lives for the better part of 10 years. We like to think he lived a long and joyful life (although I’m sure he’d say different).

    Jamie and I flew back to New York for Christmas again this year. As always, we had a great time. The worst part about the trip was that we didn’t get to spend much time with my Dad. He was in the hospital for about a week. He’s out, which is good

    Summer with the Mackey's

    Jamie and recently returned from yet another great trip to Austin to visit our good friends the Mackey’s. As always, we had a great time. Man, it was hot and humid! Thankfully the pool was always refreshing (at about 90 degrees). We had a day or two below 100 degrees. One of those days we spent at Schlitterbahn. Jamie was so happy that she finally got to go (she got cheated last year when Joe and I took the boys to 6 flags).

    Christmas

    family photos travel

    Shortly after the Christmas party (are you sensing a theme here?), we headed to New York to celebrate Christmas with my family. As a treat to ourselves, Jamie and I spent the first two nights in midtown Manhattan. What a blast! Jamie usually drags me into the city kicking and screaming (I’m not a big fan of commuting in, walking around all day, and commuting back). This was a very different experience since we had a lot more time to do stuff.

    I’m finally getting around to posting pictures from last year (sorry). The holiday season kicked off when Jamie’s sister, Jodie, brother-in-law, Nico, and their exchange student, Komal, came out to Colorado for Thanksgiving. We had a great time with them, and we hope they had a great time too! Jamie did lots of entertaining that week since I had to work 3 days. Jamie’s Dad, Jim, joined us for a few days too.

    Tim's New Ride

    Well, it was time. My 2000 XTerra had 135,000 miles on it. We were at the point where we would either spend a couple thousand dollars fixing it up or getting something different. I opted for the latter! I had been planning my replacement vehicle for a while. Crossovers fit many of our criteria (size and fuel economy being our biggest). The “compact” crossovers are very competitive. Out of all them, the Nissan Rogue stands out above the rest.

    July 4th in Austin Texas

    Last week we made our annual pilgrimage to Austin, TX, to visit our good friends The Mackey’s. As always, we had a great time! We spent a whole lotta time eating BBQ and swimming in the pool. Jamie’s highlight is when we rented a boat on Lake Travis. It was actually a lot of fun. Mostly because with the boat rental we rented a driver. That was great. He knew all about the lake and all about driving boats ( we’ve had… issues… in the past ).

    Hawaii, Part Deux

    A few weeks ago we were fortunate enough to go back to Hawaii for the 2nd time this year. I wasn’t too expensive since we split most of the costs three ways. Of course, had I known I might get laid off we never would have went. Anyway, we had a great time! We got a lot of diving in. The coolest part was the night Manta Ray dive. That was fantastic.
