Trip to Denver (to visit Anne)

We made our way to Denver (after a few months of promising to do so..) to see our friend Anne - one of Betsy's HS friends. We had a blast site seeing and drinking in some cold, refreshing coors right out of the Rockies!




I believe this was our first round of tasting...luckily the girls couldn't finish all of their tastes





This what they call a wild MOOSE - right along the highway! He was a huge sucker and had a gang of girls with him...




This is not such a wild moose... but we just couldn't resist rubbin him a little.





We visited the Stanely Hotel in Estes Park..this is where the Shining was filmed. Our recommendate is to just take it in from the distance.

Backyard Landscape

We finally got our backyard landscaped! We went from nothing to a jungle! Check out the before and after shots... There are still a few trees that we are supposed to be getting on Friday (29th). Then the backyard will be complete!

AFTER LANDSCAPING.........What a difference!

Dwayne & Amy Tie the Knot

So, my brother Carl / Dwayne was able to talk this young, cool Kentucky gal (Amy) into marrying him... they did it barefoot on the beach near sunset - very cool! ... it was a great party for a great couple!






The happy (sexy & sandy) newlyweds!








Betsy posing with Don and Evelyn...






Dwayne and the boys prep'ing for the big event.










Shakin' it just like mama taught him how...







Who says Big Edd isn't hip?!? Where did my Foster's go ?

I guess the honeymoon started...

Baby Berlin Baby Shower

It was August 2008, and we hosted our first co-ed baby shower packed with dirty diapers, drinking and eating games...what else is there..? Oh yeah, a VERY pregnant Shannon! Hope you enjoy a little cinematography of the event.




Tim - papa to be having one last day of pampering.

Blind folded, spoon wielding mamas attempt to force feed fat baby heads... being the official photographer was a blessing!
