Hula Wine Bottle

We saw these wine bottle hula packages while we were in Hawaii and thought they were really cute so I decided to try to make our own when we got back. Here's our version of the Hula Wine Bottle Cosy on one of the Byington wines from our wedding. 

Touch with Celebrity

This weekend we went to the Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway for the 33rd Rolex Monterey Historic Automobile Races. Where Jay Leno also happened to be with his McLaren (us with our Mini Cooper S) hehe ok not in even close to the same league. Here Kyle captured our entire meeting. What a nice guy though, how annoying it must be to always be asked for photos and autographs but he was so gracious. 

Maui

Here we are at the Four Seasons enjoying our one of our last days in paradise. We had an amazing time on Maui. We took a helicopter tour, snorkled, did the road to hana, got massages and relaxed by the pool, went to the Maui Ocean center, went shopping in Lahaina and relaxed a little more.

We're Married

July 22 finally arrived and it was the hotest day of the year. Here we are just after taking our vows. After a day in the scorching heat well into the hundreds we were certainly ready to be off on our honeymoon in more tollerable weather.

Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival

This year we took a trip up to half moon bay to see the Big Pumpkin for this years festival. The winning pumpkin was 1229lbs!!! Wow that's one BIG pumpkin. s 

Awww a beautiful sunset along the California coast at Pismo Beach. This wrapped up a hecked end to our trip to LA to pick up the RAV4. The flight was cancelled, insane traffic (4hrs to Santa Barbara), where the Inn Keeper was drunk and we discovered ants had found the candy we'd purchased the night before the next morning *sigh*. Only to arrive in the hotel in Pismo where our reservation had been "misplaced". Once that was resolved we enjoyed a wonderful dinner and stroll around San Luis Obispo, and ended the evening with the sunset you see here. We were so glad to get home the following day, more than enough excitement for one weekend.

We're engaged!!! Kyle proposed on a scenic overlook on at hike at Rancho San Antonio over the weekend :) So exciting. 

We finally got "Smokey" on June 1st. It's been a long 8 month wait especially the last few weeks as we've had to wait for the bumper to be repainted at the VPC in Southern California. It's been worth the wait. It's so much fun to drive. Happy Motoring!!! :)
