Barbados

Andy — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 07:00:00 +0000

For our first anniversary, Cathy and I took a second honeymoon to Barbados and stayed in a luxurious resort called The Crane, overlooking Crane Beach, which was profiled by Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous as one of the top ten beaches in the world. It lived up to the hype, and then some. An amazing, wonderful week with my wonderful wife, and a perfect way to mark our first year together.

Friends Beach Trip 2009

Andy — Sat, 08 Aug 2009 07:00:00 +0000

The annual friends beach trip was a much larger event this year, as 18 people - including six little ones - shared a six-bedroom house right on the beach in Gulf Shores. We had a great time watching the babies play in the water and sand, ate some good seafood, and enjoyed spending some quality time with our friends.

Chicago

Andy — Sat, 30 May 2009 07:00:00 +0000

Cathy and I went to Chicago my birthday weekend to watch the first-place Dodgers take on the Cubs at Wrigley Field, and to take in the sights and sounds of the Windy City. In addition to attending two games, we took a great architectural boat tour of the Chicago River, made it to the top of the Sears Tower, visited Grant Park and Millenium Park, went to Navy Pier, walked the Magnificent Mile, ate at Harry Caray's and Pizzeria Uno, and checked out Oak Street Beach. Great trip. This was also my first chance to really test out the new Canon XSi, so I might have gone a little overboard... you've been warned.

While the outcome of the game wasn't what we'd have all liked, the Alabama nation descended on New Orleans for New Year's for the first time since 1993, and good times were had on the bayou. Cathy, Rori, and I enjoyed walking around the French Quarter, eating some great food, and soaking up the pageantry of the Tide's first BCS Bowl Game in eight years.

Honeymoon in Cabo

Andy — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 07:00:00 +0000

Our Honeymoon destination was beautiful Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where we stayed at the luxurious Playa Grande resort. We had a blast relaxing and winding down after the wedding festivities. While there we went parasailing, took a sunset cruise around Land's End, went on a snorkel cruise, did a couples' massage on the beach, explored the public beach and the marina district, took a water taxi around El Arco and Lover's Beach at sunset, and ate great food all week. It was a spectacular trip, and we will be back!

UA Wedding Shower

Andy — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 07:00:00 +0000

My co-workers threw a wedding shower for Cathy and I last week, and they did it up right in full Alabama regalia including matching personalized “bride” and “groom” football jerseys, Coca-Cola and Golden Flake (as an homage to the Bear, of course), and a crimson and white cake. They welcomed Cathy to the University family in style, and we had a great time. Thanks to everyone who helped planned and put on a great shower for us - we had a blast! The photos were taken by University photographer Zach Riggins - thanks Zach!
