I've been a blogging slacker lately. Actually, I've just been super-busy with work, travel, kids' activities... and trying to take advantage of this amazing weather we've been having in Seattle. I've got lots of updates to write about, but I'd be remiss if I didn't first give a heart-felt shout-out to my amazing wife on the occasion of our 19th wedding anniversary!
First (of course), some photos. (Special thanks to Karri's mom, Donna, for sending these!)
Our wedding ceremony was held at the Mission de Alcala in San Diego. I blogged a few weeks ago about our return trip their this past Easter. What a beautiful setting.

The reception was at Karri's parents' ranch in Jamul, CA. They generously and graciously hosted 200+ people!

The band was great and the dance floor was packed all night. The band tried to play a 'last song' around 11pm (I think), but Karri would have nothing of it. They stayed for another set.

I couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate our marriage - surrounded by friends and family, all having a great time in a spectacular setting.
Karri and I were lucky enough to sneak away for a nice, quiet dinner tonight to celebrate. We headed to Phoenecia on Alki Beach, here in West Seattle, for a delicious meal. I know it's cliche, but we talked about how it seemed our wedding day was just yesterday (it does!). Then we reminisced about all the amazing things we've done in the intervening 19 years - not the least of which is starting our own family and raising three great kids. We feel very blessed.
I know I've been blessed.
Happy anniversary, Karri. I love you!
