weekend at the allvine homestead – blue ridge • 07.23.05

not a whole lot of pics here, but emily and i had a nice relaxing weekend up in blue ridge (after my team won the round of 16 in alta playoffs). we went canoeing (and got tumped by some a little rapid) and hiking, and doug and i worked on his gavin’s playset downstairs.

here’s a photo from the toccoa river restaurant where we ate saturday night

btw, not mentioned previously (but close to our hearts) is the 1 day trip up to nashvegas last weekend for em’s 10 year reunion. i will only mention that they passed the hat to try and get a little additional money b/c they had overspent. also, they had a ton of cake available for the guests.

Dana’s Wedding in Boca • 07.14.05

weeeeellll, emily and i headed back down to south florida for the second weekend in a row, but so as to vary it a little bit, there was a hurricane this time. now, the hurricane didn’t actually hit us, it did ensure some windy weather (which emily liked) as pictured in the video at the end of this posting. so, without further ado, here are some pictures of the weekend……ok, with a little ado. i must mention that we went out to a piano bar the night before the wedding where i watched 8 auburn grads circle a table trying to come up with cool sayings on a napkin that could be written on the mirror behind the piano bar guys. after much hemming and hawing they eventually settled on “bama sux” and then proceeded to pay $33 to have it written on the mirror twice. i wouldn’t write this here, except that i got asked several times what i thought about that. “in my face!!!!”

ok, now, no more ado

here’s em and me at the wedding

here’s em with her friends jen and nicole

and here’s em and sylvia

and here’s emily blowin in the wind

finally, here’s the some video of the beach and the dancing after the wedding.

the wedding was lovely and the food was great and everbody said “i do.” oh, i will also mention that it was a mixed faith wedding (christian and jewish) which was pretty interesting and they even had a user’s guide in the program – which was cool. it also bore out what i had suspected all along, that rabbi’s are funnier than christian priests.

    • Camping Weekend June 9, 2007
      sooooo, i was able to convince john and stephen that it would be a good idea for us to spend a weekend out in the woods with no food and no hair dryers (more a concern for stephen than for me - and less so every day). we found our way up to the greater […]

    • Lift January 23, 2007
      i usually try not to really mention what i'm thinking here, as it is my general supposition that no one really cares, but today will be an exception. i'm not even going to pretend that any more than 3 people in america might find me insiteful, but i figured i'd just put it out here. […]
