Zwick Family Reunion 2009

It was my privilege to be apart of the Zwick Family Reunion for the first time. All of Todd's family was here for the family reunion and for Steph's (todd's cousin) wedding. We stayed at the downtown Marriott for the weekend. On Saturday we enjoyed a fun day at Lagoon and on Mother's Day we mingled together at the hotel, ate dinner, had a wonderful family home evening, and a baby blessing of cute, little Elise.


Thanks Grandpa & Grandma Zwick for a wonderful weekend.

Steph & Mike - congrats you two!




There were four of us who celebrated our birthdays that weekend. 
Me, Matty, Jeremy and Brandon. 








The HaPpiESt place on earth

At the beginning of May we decided to head down to California for a weekend get-a-way with Gabe and Glen. It was a quick trip but we didn't waste a moment. We spent 2 days at Disneyland and 1 day at the beach in Santa Monica. We had so much fun with our friends, The Womble's. I don't think I have laughed so hard in such a long time. Thanks for the memories!

We borrowed the Jacob's family tradition and made Pirates of the Caribbean the first ride of our Disneyland adventure.

Please note: this was not a pre-meditated idea. We had to make a quick stop at Target to get a few items before heading to Disneyland. While there Gabe called Todd and said "How far would you go for our friendship?" I don't think Todd thought he would have to go that far. When we got back to the hotel - Glen came out in this little number and informed Todd that he would also be joining him. At first I wasn't too sure about this idea but Todd was willing to do this for our friendship with Glen & Gabe and it definitely provided a lot of laughs throughout the day.

I don't know if Glen is so happy because we are at Disneyland or because he is wearing his favorite color.

Any guy can wear pink but it takes a real man to wear magenta (with another real man).



Usually people have mints left on their pillows at the hotel, however, we were lucky enough to have milk duds left on our door handle. There is nothing like 6 semi-melted milk duds stuck to your hotel room door handle that has been touched by millions of people. {P.S. Todd didn't really eat them, despite what Glen says}


Happy #6 Wombles!
Thanks for letting us share your special day.

WiCkEd

Todd, being the thoughtful husband he is, surprised me with tickets to Wicked for Christmas. The glorious day finally came when I had the privilege to go and see it for the first time.

Glen & Gabe came with us and we all put our names in the drawing for the coveted cheap tickets - but much to our disappointment - none of our names were chosen. Sorry Womble's!
