Happy Birthday Gordon!

Last year we were driving across the country.  We celebrated Gordon's birthday in San Antonio, Texas: 

Happy 29th Birthday Gordon!!!

Happy Halloween!

Hollywood Bowl

Last Saturday night we headed to LA for the Zac Brown Band concert at the Hollywood Bowl.  We made a day of it and went to Manhattan Beach to hang out.  We ate at Simmzy's which was a fun atmosphere and amazing food!

Hollywood Bowl

I love those hills!

The seating is all wooden benches.  The next level down has chairs and fold up tables you can eat on.

Going to the Hollywood Bowl is a must if you love concerts.  We'd never seen anything quite like it. It's so subtle being only a few blocks away from Hollywood Blvd. You can order gourmet food and beverages.  People are tailgating - California style- which means they are really bringing a picnic with sandwiches and wine, rather than burgers and beers off the back of the truck.
And Zac Brown Band puts on a really great concert! They played a lot of hits other than their own and played a lot of instruments.  The band is also building a summer camp, Camp Southern Ground, for kids with autism in Georgia. How cool!

Our 1st Anniversary

Yesterday was our 1st Anniversary! Can you believe it's been a year?! In one way it feels like a long time ago since we've been so busy with new things, but on the other hand it's hard to believe!
Gordon surprised me with a wonderful night celebrating in Newport Beach and dinner in Laguna Beach!

It's crazy to think a year ago we had no idea what the future held for us! I don't think we could have asked for a better year!  We are so thankful.
