Tyler & Tina's Wedding
February really took a lot out of me. All those Vegas trips were wrapped up by Tyler and Tina's wedding in Mesa, AZ. I stopped keeping track, but this was another wedding I was in but probably the first time I had ever been in someone's vows! My 30th birthday in Scottsdale was a memorable one, but not just for me, for Tyler and Tina as well. While the two of them had met before at pool league at the Fox and Hound, it wasn't until my birthday weekend that they really hit it off. Tina needed a ride and and Tyler offered one, I bunked them up together in the same room, and well I guess the rest is history. Tyler was kind enough to mention me in his vows, saying how he "knew he loved [Tina] ever since Andy's birthday." I am quite honored to have been a part of their connection.
I got to Phoenix on Friday night and got changed at my parents house in Scottsdale. The rehearsal dinner was at Salud in Tempe and several of us decided to go out to Old Town Scottsdale afterwards. Most of Saturday was devoted to getting ready, but since guys can get their tux on in less then 20 minutes, it was really just drink and relax time. The wedding was at the Red Mountain Ranch Country Club and fortunately I didn't have to give any speeches this time. The next morning there would be your typical brunch (this was hard for me as you know I am not a morning person) and then we were on our way back to Tucson. Another successful wedding in the books! Apologies for the lack of pictures this time, I'll have to do better next time.
Maybe I'll steal some from their photographer whenever they finally get posted to Facebook... Hehehe. :)
IBM Bowling League Championships
The championships for my bowling league were held on March 15th and my team defended our title and won for the 3rd year in a row, wow! We've now won 6 championships over the 9 or so years I've been bowling.
As for me, I didn't meet my expectations of averaging a minimum of 190 pins for the second straight year, finding myself in the 180's again. After learning more about the way I bowl, I have decided I'd like to try a new ball next year (I've had this one for 4 years and my previous one for 5). I don't throw as hard as everyone else, but since I'm more about finesse and consistency, a ball that suits my slower ball-speed would be better for me. We'll see though, got a long offseason ahead before having to make that decision.
Thanks for stopping by my blog again! Until next time!
