Zub's Wedding/Padge's B-Day







Last Friday Zub and Jim finally tied the knot!! The wedding was in Boardman, OH and the majority of the attendance was University of Toledo alumni which was fun - it was like being back in the Greek village - except for the fact that the majority are married and quite a few have kids. Zub turned 30 at midnight so we continued the party at the lounge in the Holiday Inn (hotel, motel, Holiday Innnn).

Saturday night the Pi Delts went to dinner for Padge's 30th birthday!! We went to Delmonico's in Independence and then went to the Bone Yard in Broadview Heights for the after party.

Jeremy and I are back in Arizona recovering from the whirlwind trip to Ohio!

BJ's wedding and Mom's B-Day

Jeremy and KristinTrish, Sarah and Kristin
Mom's Birthday

Jeremy and I flew into Cleveland Friday night around midnight and immediately had to put on a sweatshirts - the 70 degree weather was too chilly for us as we are used to temps in the 100's. We drove down to Columbus on Saturday where our good friend BJ (apparently we now call him Jay) was married. We had a great time hanging out with the Columbus crew and I finally got to meet the offspring - Avery and the twins, Duncan and Jackson. They are all adorable!!!


Sunday morning we woke up and had a nice breakfast at the Arthur's and we headed off to Cuyahoga Falls for my Mom's B-day party at my parent's house. The whole family was there including Grandmothers, cousins, aunts and uncles. We played bocci and cornhole until 10pm!!
More Ohio updates to come!

Pirate Master




Has anyone seen this show? Jeremy was flipping through channels last night and started watching this reality TV show "Pirate Master". It is like Survivor but everything has to do with pirates. They live on a ship and they search for treasures and they even dress like pirates. I think it is a little hokey but Jeremy was obsessed and stayed up until 3am watching every episode online until he was caught up on the season. His new mission in life is to get on the next season of "Pirate Master". So if any of you know where auditions are, let him know! Ahoy!

Bye Eric!!



Our friend Eric, a.k.a. REI camping guru, got a promotion with Richmond Homes and moved to Denver. Here are some pics from his going away night out last Friday. We will miss you, Eric!!!

Sweet Victory

I am proud to announce that our sand volleyball team "Chuck Norris All Stars" won the league tournament last night - we went undefeated through the bracket in four matches. We play in a co-ed fours league and our team consists of me and Jeremy and our friends Nick, Kendall and Jen.

In the middle of the tournament, a sandstorm picked up and it downpoured for a good 20 minutes. Luckily it cleared up and we were able to play the final game! We won a trophy and $30 to the clubhouse!!!

Back in Action

So we sucked it up and bought the exact same camera that we lost last week. This has not been a lucky month for me with the cameras. Our first camera (which we had since our wedding) fell victim to a spilled beverage at our last bocci tournament a few weeks ago. So then we had to buy a new one to replace that. Then, as mentioned in a previous blog, the new camera was stolen in San Diego last weekend. So - we had to buy the same camera and memory stick all over again. Hopefully this camera decides to stick around for awhile!

SJP's "Bitten"

So I found the one store in all of metro Phoenix that carries the new Sarah Jessica Parker's clothing line and it was in the most ghetto mall ever!! Anyway, I was expecting her clothes to be a little more funky but they were all something you would get at the GAP. Mostly t-shirts, jeans and button-down shirts. Cute stuff but just very casual. The only store that carries her line "Bitten" is Steve & Barry's. Just a little FYI for you 'Carrie' fans.

Buddy's Buddies

Buddy, Boston & Gus

Buddy's best friends in AZ are Gus (pug/chihauhau) and Boston (jack russell). They live a street over from us and Buddy LOVES them. They can play all day together. Well, they have been out of town in Montana for the past four weeks with their mom, Misty. Today they came over to play for the first time in a month and Bud was so excited he couldn't contain himself. They just left a few minutes ago and Buddy is passed out!

Lost Camera

So the fourth of July was a ton of fun at Mission Bay. Jeremy brought our cornhole set which we played pretty much the whole day. It is an addicting game - I must say. Then we headed back to the tent to chill and I discovered that our new digital camera was gone!!! Either we droppped it, somebody misplaced it, or it was stolen. Which ever it was it is GONE!! And such a bummer because we just bought it two weeks ago!!

So needlesss to say - I have to wait until Hartnett sends me some of her 4th pics to post on here.

P.S. it is super hot here right now - it has been around 110 degrees here lately. In this kind of heat we have been doing things indoors or in a pool!!

San Diego Vaca

Hanging out in the lawn at the Fall Out Boy concert


Jeremy and I have been in San Diego since Friday on a little vaca. The weather here has been absolutely perfect - 78 degrees and sunny everyday. We are staying with Jeremy's brother, Aaron, at his apartment in Mission Valley. We have been hanging out at the beach, playing corn hole, we went to the Fall Out Boy concert on Sunday night and Pasta night in Pacific Beach last night. Today we took kayaks out into the ocean around the La Jolla Cove. We saw seals sunning themselves on the rocks and while we were rowing around in the ocean we came VERY close to a sealion and leopard sharks!

Tonight we are just hanging out and getting ready for the Main Event on the Bay tomorrow - 4th of July celebration!!!
