Hope you have fun! At some point we’ll add captions, but I can’t promise when…

This is our annual celebration activity since we got together. My left knee wasn’t bad getting there, but in the way back it started hurting. Well… It took us 1:15 minutes each way, and 3 very hard hills (each way). One of them I had to walk the bike, but all the rest I biked!

Esta eh nossa atividade de comemoracao desde quecomecamos a namorar, dois anos atras: ir de bicicleta para esta reserva natural, onde tem um riacho e um penhasco que da na agua. Muito bonito. Meu joelho esquerdo aguentou ate 3/4 do caminho, e dai eu tive que empurrar a bicicleta nas subidas. Bom, tudo bem. Um dia ainda vou resolver este probleminha...

Cedar Bluffs is here. And we played Cribbage, played in the delicious creek and ate the very flavorful pesto pasta that David made for us, and walked up to the bluffs. Very beautiful!

Cedar Bluffs eh aqui. Nos jogamos cartas, brincamos na agua e comemos um spaguetti ao pesto delicioso que o David fez pra nos! Fomos tbm pro topo das rochas. Muito bonito!

SO we went to Casa Blanca and to Contradance.

The food was delcious, and the dance very exciting! Check the video of the dance!

Hi there… Here is the video of the “surprise” right before cutting the wedding cake.

More pictures and stories to come…

Excitement is clearly building as the party time approaches, I’m hearing more and more talk of people adjusting their schedules to be able to make it on Saturday.  Understandably, I’m also hearing lots of local people asking where our new house is, so I thought I’d make sure that that info was prominently posted for these last days:

The party is at our new house: 1261 S. Winfield Rd.

And remember, any other question you have about the party is probably hopefully answered in Party Central.

See you Saturday!

Friday July 11, at 8pm, we’ll be heading to Upland Brewing Co. to have dinner and stay for drinks afterwards.

Weather permitting, we hope to get tables outside!

Since they don’t make reservations, we’d encourage you to call David 345 2813 or Priscilla 929 1739 to check if we made it.

Hi all!!

Only 3 weeks until our party, and finally we got new information for you.

Please check the Party Central.

We are looking forward to celebrating with you!

David & Pri

ps.: If you feel like, bring comfortable shoes/clothes for outdoor games!

After moving out from my studio apartment (now I’m at David’s house), I finally had time to do the requested full list of plants of the new house!

Well, for now, I’m researching deer resistant plants and talking with Cheri and Fiona about plants that can work in the new house. And I bought in the Farmers Market this beautiful flower. Which I found out to be an Impatiens!! (David said they are pretty easy to let grow).

Anyway…. I’ll plant it n a bigger pot at some point this week.

Happy Spring for everyone!

It arrived a week ago!
