Now I'm just starting to feel bad...

Robin goes to the trouble of adding my "new" blog as a link from theirs and all I have is one post that isn't even done! Well, I'll work on that, I'm sorry. But life slowed down considerably from LA. That does not mean I haven't been having fun. I'll do my best to show what I've been up to the last 6 months. And if you have a second, please just leave a quick little comment on here just so I know I'm not doing this in vein. It's been a while and I don't blame you if you gave up on me.
LOVE.
Annyong.

Leading Up to the Move!

(This post is going to take me a while. Please check in every once and a while to see it's progress. Slowly but surely, I'll get it done. AND NOW the pictures are disappearing from this post! I'll do what I can, thanks for being patient)
I'll do the best I can, which means I'm going through my photos and trying to remember in what order they all happened. And most of this post is going to be events that happened within the last 3 months before I moved to Denver, CO.
First up, you guessed it... More theme parks! (Early June)
[Melissa and Sean excited to go on Sidewinder]
Knott's Berry Farm, the last on our list of theme parks!
[Waiting in line for Boomerang]
[0-80mph in 2.5 seconds. Wonder why it's called X-elerator?!]
Then, what do you do after a day of roller coasters? Downtown Disney of course. We met up with some more people at the Amazon Cafe in Downtown Disney.
[Adam, Kari, Nina, Melissa, Sean, me (yes in glassless glasses)]

--Then, my best friend since Kindergarten Aaron Harada got married!
I headed back to Portland later in June to be apart of Aaron and Gaby's wedding. It was at a church in Salem
[Aaron practicing his first kiss as a husband?][We almost called off the wedding (HAH!)]
The photographers took some amazing shots, and Aaron and Gaby sent me some of them but I am without a scanner. So I took a picture of some of them with my camera, like this one...
[I love this picture!]

I only planned, and got plain tickets to stay in Portland for a week. Nate was awesome enough to offer me some painting if I stayed another week. So I did that, and it was nice to be in Portland for a little while longer. I got to spend some time with mom and dad, and a bunch of family came over after church one Sunday. Nate, Ricky and I went out to some cool places a few nights too. It was a very good couple of weeks.
Then I was back in Sherman Oaks for approximately one day before we took off for...

TEXAS!

This week really was like a Pepperdine reunion. Friends from many states gathered in the small town of Wimberly, Texas for Hollie Tucker and Matt Marine's wedding.
[Believed to be one of the greatest pictures ever taken (below)]
[The Church]
The wedding was very them. Wednesday (the Maid of Honor) read a short story called "I Like You." It was way cute and funny. Then Jason Murphy (Man of Honor, and old roommate extraordinair) read, with a straight face the entire time, You Got The Touch, which is also known as the theme from the original animated Transformers movie.
