The out-of-towners arrive

June 13th, 2010

These are my friends who came from far to visit: some as far as St. Louis & Hawaii, others even farther from Japan & Thailand. It has been more than a few years since I’ve seen my international friends, so no doubt, we were really excited. They land in SFO, so it made sense to have our San Mateo apartment the meeting point for all our guests. They got to see our new apartment, too. Also a good opportunity to further explore Downtown San Mateo—it’s always better to do these kind of things with visitors!

More photos of our new baby niece

June 8th, 2010

I’m on a photo retouching roll! I got to finish a few photos taken a few weeks ago. Apparently, my new niece doesn’t even look like she does in the photo above. Babies grow quickly!

More photos are in my Flickr album.

Good news, everyone! We finally uploaded the photos. We’ve been out & about entertaining out of town guests since the conclusion of the party, so but now we’ve finally found the time to upload these lovely photos! We even hired a photographer this time around!

Check them out on our wedding page.

Mother’s Day at the apartment

May 17th, 2010

Everyone but my mom has seen our new place. Mother’s Day would be the perfect opportunity to show her our new digs, so we invited the family over to come celebrate with a patio barbecue.

It was the best day ever. Not only did we have good food, but A’s pitcher Dallas Braden throws a perfect game! Being a good son & a gracious host, of course, I TiVo-ed the game while I had company & watched it after they left.

Crazy thing after that: my sister has a her baby 10 days earlier than expected! Now she’ll get to celebrate Mother’s Day with her new baby.

Brendan’s last day at work

May 15th, 2010

A few weeks ago, our office video expert & former teammate Brendan left the company for bigger opportunities. Since we love him so much, the company threw him a nice party in the middle of the day. I photographed most of these shots using his Canon 7D. A truly bittersweet moment: sad to see him leave, but he has a sweet camera (did I use that word properly?).

We’ll miss you around the office, Brendo!
