Tina's 30th Birthday Party

Last night, we celebrated Tina's 30th Birthday and did we ever celebrate! From Paparazzi to California Rolls to Candy Station, we hung out with good friends and had a great time. How fun was it to see friends come out and show their love for Tina. Lots of eating, drinking, dancing and just plan ole shooting the breeze.

Thanks to Karen for making the Magazine Covers, Kevin for being our "No Doubt" Gwen Stefani DJ, Andres and the Roaches for blowing up the balloons and Jimmy for bringing the drinks. Thanks to everyone who helped me set up and clean up! The night really brought a smile to Tina's face!

Even though Tina and I both didn't have our IDs on us, we still had a great time trying to talk our way into Yard House and Dave and Busters. Glad Fox Sports Grill hooked us up with our very own VIP section and a shout out to Tina by the DJ. Last night will go down in the Song's history book!

What a great time we had and look forward to many more, especially this Friday for the Korean Cultural Outing for our good friends, Daniel and Cassidy Roach. Be ready for some good BBQ and singing! Yeah!

Settling In

As you may have noticed, we haven't updated our blog so I just wanted to give a quick update.
The honeymoon was great. Maybe Sam will share the adventures we had for the rest of the trip but I'd rather he share it than I.
Being back home is nice. We're still settling into our new place. We're both back at work. We've both been cooking a lot at home and we love it.
That's about it for now.

DAY TWO PM: Swimming and Dinner at the Bistro

In the afternoon of Day Two, the sun came out and we went swimming in the Grand Wailea Pools. It was like Maui's baby sister to Raging Waters. They had a rope to jump off of, ton's of water slides and my favorite, the Grotto with the bar! The pools were all connected by a channel that actually had a current. If you just floated on your back, it would actually move you to the other pools. They even had a pool with a miniature beach on it for the kids. So infants can swim and play in the beach without the dangers of a real ocean. If you have kids, it's a great place to go on vacation. You can even drop the kids off with a daycare person to watch your kids in the pool.

Then after swimming, we had dinner reservations at the Bistro. The only restaurant that allowed casual wear. It was real nice cuz it was right by the water with a beautiful view of the sunset. It was a nice romantic dinner for two. We even got Champagne for free because it was our honeymoon. Woo Hoo!

After the meal, we went for a drive. Grand Wailea was great and all, but everything was way overpriced. Our breakfast consisting of two bagels, two juice and a crossaint cost close to $40. Ouch. So you can imagine our joy when we found a Safeway about 15 minutes away. Sweet!

DAY TWO: Swimming in the Rain

I never wake up early, but on Day Two I did. I woke up to go walk along the beach in the morning and WOW! The Resort is just as beautiful. I've been to Wakiki before and the contrast is quite surprising. In Oahu, the tourist just pack the beaches, but here in Maui, and especially Wailea, it's just peaceful.

Then Tina and I had some breakfast and coffee and went on a walk. There is a path that connects the different resorts together and we wanted to check out the Fairmont. So we started walking. Within minutes, the dark cloud began to loom over us and it began to rain... actually it was a downpour.

Click on the video to see how we handled it.

Then we got to the Fairmont and had a little photo session. It was really fun taking pictures of each other. Here are some pics. (Side Note: These pix is unaltered in Photoshop).


This was all before 2 pm. The afternoon and evening is another post in itself. Stay tuned.
