Our first chiminea fire!



Nick loves fires, and he has been wanting one of these for a long time now.  He's very excited! Now we just need some patio furniture to sit on while we enjoy it...one thing at a time...

Putting the caps on!

Nick started brewing his own beer last year.  I recently decided to try my hand at my own batch of a Raspberry Wheat beer.  Here are some pics of me bottling it.  Just a couple of weeks until we can drink it! Hope it's tasty!

We took a trip to Vegas with some friends to celebrate our friend Donovan's 30th Birthday.  Unfortunately, no one hit the jack pot, but we still had a great time!  We went to LOVE, a Cirque du Soleil show based on the Beatles music.  It was very cool!

The only bad thing was that this weekend was unusually hot for Vegas.  We had to deal with temps from 95-100 degrees, so it was a little toasty, even at night!

The Mini



Nick and I ran the whole Mini! We had really planned to do a run/walk combo, but somewhere around mile 6, we decided to just keep running.  We are a tad sore today, but we're happy that we made it!
