Our Interests

We enjoy common activities and past times.  We both compete in Triathlons; hence we swim, bike, and run for fitness; although this year has been a tough one due to injuries.  We also like to hike, backpack, and camp outdoors in the High Sierra and Yosemite National Parks.  Thanks Todd, Rebecca's older brother for hooking it up as a tour guide and place to stay in Yosemite Valley.  This past May ‘12 we spent a week in Maui and snorkeled everyday, even twice a day!  Overall, we are thankful to live in the CA Bay Area and share this active lifestyle.

In Oakland, we like to explore our neighborhood.  For an afternoon walk we’ll go to the Oakland cemetery and visit my grandparents.  We walk to Fenton’s Creamery for an ice cream in memory of Grandma Flo.  We were very fortunate to share our engagement news before saying good bye to her this August at age 100; what an incredible inspiration she was!  We like to cook together. We make some pretty killer dinners but every once in a while we treat ourselves to a nice meal out.  Oakland has a great variety of tasteful meals out.  On occasion, we also like to have a drink or two out.  We are excited to visit the local bars and get to know more restaurants!

Around the house, we like to play with Gus, our pet chinchilla.  We are forever entertained by his curiosity and energy.  We always get a good laugh when he gets a dust bath.  He goes to town.  We’ll post a video soon, promise.  We also enjoy a relaxing night in to share a movie or good book.  Yes, sometimes we read aloud to each other, shh it’s a secret though. ;)  We’re excited about our new complex with a pool and hot tub.  We’ve already used the facility a hand full of times, it’s awesome. We look forward to host and entertain more this year!

Our favorite music, books, and movies are to come!  We're down for any ideas for bridal tunes and dance themes. ;) Thanks.
