Kent skate trip

Some of the boys and I went down to Kent on Friday night to do some skateboarding. Here is a little video from that night.

Sailing

My friend Josh's Parents just got a sail boat. They were nice enough to invite Alissa and I for a boat ride this weekend. The weather was perfect, and I had a great time.

Kauai Hawaii

Alissa's friend Alissa (yes they have the same name) lives in Hawaii and invited us to visit. I don't see how anyone in there right mind could turn that down, so we headed out to Kauai for the last week of May. Lets just say it was amazing. We rode in a helicopter, hung out with horses, kayaked, jumped off waterfalls and rope swings, hiked one billion miles of amazing terrain, in general had a great time.

Boys in Kentucky

Every year we do a boys trip that involves skating and general good times. This year we decided to go to Kentucky for Thommy's birthday. Thommy's dad was nice enough to host us for a few days, it was amazing. We decided to do a movie of our trip, this is just one segment of the movie we made.

Easter in Vegas

I went to Las Vegas for Easter this year. Britt and her kids went down to visit my sister Shea and my dad, so I figured I should go as well. We went out to the Hoover Dam, and we also visited the M&M factory. Sorry to say but they were not making candy when we went. So we had to make do by eating some instead.

Tulips

I try and make it up to the tulip fields every year to check out the amazing colors. I think this year they were the brightest I have see yet.

30 ouch!

February 15th 1979 was the day I was born, February 15th 2009 was the day I turned 30. I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than with a bunch of friends in Mexico. So me and 12 good buddies rented a place in Sayulita, I have nothing more to say that it was amazing.

College reunion in Vail

I received and email back in the fall from one of my college friends, seeing if I want to have a little college reunion in Vail. Since I hadn't seen anyone since I left college 10 years ago, it sounded like a great idea. We all went to school in Glenwood Springs which is about 45 min from Vail. I am sure glad I went, it was so good to see everyone, and I almost forgot how fun it was to snowboard with Ryan and Brandon.
