More honeymoon photos

Evan — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 02:21:13 +0000

I’ve uploaded more honeymoon photos – more photos from the resort, and photos from our day on Isla Mujeres, where we swam with the dolphins and manatees. You’ll be able to tell from the photos how much fun it was.

MS 150

Evan — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 21:48:52 +0000

I’ve uploaded a few pages of photos that Elizabeth and I (both non-riders) took from the MS 150 bike ride today. The ride started in Pittsburgh and ends tomorrow in Erie – a long ride for sure. Meredith, Aaron, Dad Ellis, and Vanessa (a/k/a “Team Ditty”) did the hard work, and made a very good showing. Elizabeth, her grandfather, and I worked at the lunch stop in Grove City. As hot as it was outside, I was worried that Team Diddy would roll into Grove City looking a bit worn out. They arrived, though, in great shape and ready to continue on after a short rest. They spend tonight at Allegheny College, and then ride to Erie tomorrow.

New Year’s Eve (really)

Evan — Tue, 20 May 2008 00:17:29 +0000

As I was looking through the photo directory on my media server the other day, I realized that I had never uploaded the photos taken on New Year’s Eve at Drew and Erin’s house. So, only five months late, here are the photos. It’s always good to start off a new year with good friends.

Lake Tahoe

Evan — Tue, 13 May 2008 17:05:06 +0000

Yesterday, with all the ski areas in the region now closed for the season, Matt, Brooke, and I drove the 72 mile loop around Lake Tahoe. Wow. What a remarkable drive. It was a scenic drive, and there were a few white knuckle parts as well. In one area, after several hairpin turns, the road crossed a ridge, with a dropoff of several thousand feet on either side. Matt and I took some great photos of the lake.

Brooke left for the airport early this morning. Matt and I will be leaving in about 45 minutes. I took some video which I will post when I get home.

Squaw Valley

Matt, Brooke, and I drove up to Squaw Valley from San Francisco yesterday. We skied today, on Squaw’s last day of the season. It was sunny and warm, and a nice way to cap off the season. It was a great day, but tiring. For our last run, we hiked up a ridge line, and ended up having to do a bit of exploration to find a way down that didn’t involve falling off of any cliffs. We’re probably going to do some mountain biking tomorrow. I posted some photos from the day.

Phils/Giants in San Francisco

Evan — Sat, 10 May 2008 17:32:17 +0000

Matt, Brooke, and I are in San Francisco right now. Last night, we went to see the Phillies play the Giants. The Phils won, in a really great game. Also, Phillies’ announcer Tom McCarthy was sitting near us at the start of the game, and during one of his bits on live TV we were on television. Here is a photo that we took, of Brooke and I with Tom. He was a really nice, down-to-earth guy, who chatted with us a good bit about the Phillies and baseball. I have more photos to post once we get somewhere with high speed internet that doesn’t cost $12.95 a day. UPDATE: Photos posted.

The meeting of the families

Evan — Tue, 06 May 2008 01:55:59 +0000

This weekend, our parents got together here in York. We had a great time. Elizabeth made an awesome dinner on Saturday night. We also went by Box Hill Mansion, where we will be getting married on September 7. On Sunday, Elizabeth took on her dad in Wii tennis, Wii boxing, and Wii bowling. Here’s a video (or a high-def version is here):

There’s an additional video of our Saturday get-together on the family video page.

I’ve also added new photos of Box Hill mansion taken by Dad Ellis to the previous photos that we took about a month ago. Both sets are together here.

Stratton

This year, we (Mom, Dad, and I) trekked up to Stratton, VT, for a ski trip. Elizabeth stayed at home, unfortunately, as she was busy working at her new job. We had a mixed bag of weather – some fresh snow when we arrived, some sun, some rain, and some freezing rain. It was great, regardless, to finally get in a nice chunk of skiing. We stayed in the same condo we had used last year, as it was very near the lifts.

Christmas 2007 – the Year of the Big Question

Evan — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 17:00:53 +0000

Next up are several pictures from around Christmas- both at home leading up to Christmas, and from Christmas day itself. The big news, on a personal level, was that on December 23 I asked Elizabeth to marry me, and for some reason I’ll never understand but forever appreciate, she said yes. Stockings are her favorite part of Christmas, and we did our stockings on December 23, our last night at home before heading to my parents. I put the ring (well, actually the stone on a temporary setting – she will pick out her own setting) in the bottom of her stocking, and she was very surprised when she opened it. I think I had her convinced that this wouldn’t happen until late January or early February, when several of her work trips ended. So, now we get to plan a wedding, and a life together. Christmas was great, too. As with most years, we went to church on Christmas Eve, and then spent Christmas morning opening presents (including an autographed baseball by Mike Schmidt!), followed by a huge breakfast. Then, my aunts, uncles, and cousins on my Mom’s side of the family come over. We also got to go visit my Nana. All in all, a Christmas to remember.

	Josh, after opening his Nintendo DS.
	And for the trifecta, Elizabeth after opening her Nintendo Wii. Yes, I like video games, but this was actually on her list this year.

More Walter and Milo

Evan — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 16:30:10 +0000

Elizabeth could have a full time job taking and watching photos and video of Walter and Milo. I’ve uploaded a bunch more photos that she took of them.
