My parents and brothers have their own pages since I didn't want to force them all on the same page. So I guess I'll just put my husband here.

Even though we've only been married since March 2002, we've had lots of great times together.

We took an extremely short honeymoon, if it could even be called that, and visited Universal Studios in Florida.

We went to Calgary (I attended a conference most days) and visited Banff, even braving the very high gondola ride.

I was still at school, we were broke, but Manny, the Apple computer fanatic, really wanted the newest upgrade to the apple operating system, OS 10 Jaguar. We found out that the local apple distributor was having a contest for the best costume. So we rented a strawberry suit (think red apple) and pasted jaguar-patterned X's (in Apple's preferred font) all over it. Needless to say, he won the $130 copy of software. Of course, the rental cost us $50 and the fabric was another $10, but we had a great time nonetheless.

We had our first tiny Christmas tree on top of the piano.
