Matt and Katie Curtis!

Matt and Katie got married!

On the 20th October Matt and Katie Curtis were married in sunny Virginia (very good weather for this time year!). Matty couldn't stop balling his eyes out, he had started even before he entered the church!

The reception was awesome, awesome food, people, etc...

Seen above, Sammy, Matty V and I couldn't be happier for the lucky husband, and had to celebrate in our own unique way.

Apartment building time!

Here's some photo's of the building taking place in the downstairs of the Chambers residence.


This is a shot of the cement being dug up so the plumbing could go in.

Jaden playing in the hole.
Um.... i'm not sure i have an explanation...
Sammy and Matt came around to lend their expertise.
Now most of the drywall (plaster) is up, and it looks like a home.

Christi and Katie looking on.

Our new address, therefore, will be sub-level A, Catacomb B, 110 Cara Cove Rd, North East, Md.

Other USA pics




Here's me and the fam at the Philly's/ Braves baseball game. Corporate box and all!!! good times!

















Cara, patting the bald head of one of the original signers of the constitution. You'd think that they'd at least choose people who had hair to sign the thing, were they not thinking?!








That's right, Forest Gump's shrimp company. Lt Dan is now the bus boy, but he still gets around okay.











Christi and Rosie with the F.A.O Shwartz guard, handsome gentleman.

Tribute

Here it is, i tried to get a pic of me on the dog
statue in NZ so they could be together but i couldn't find one.
Ah, good times!

New York Madness!


So here we are in New York!
It was way too crazy for words, so i won't write anymore...
Just kidding.
After all the wedding stuff we dicided to go up to NYC. We stayed just outside the city in northern New Jersey and took teh bus in every day. We also took a bus tour of the city, the best thing to do here as the city is massive and we got a good sense of what we wanted to see more of. And it gave us a chance to see everything.
Then we took the Statton Island Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty (right), good times, and the ferry was free!
We got off our tour bus to see the statue, spent an hour on the ferry, then got back on the bus to resume the tour. The tour took us through Greenwich village, Soko, and the rest of Downtown. Then we went up to Central Park, Madison Ave, Times Square and all of that. It was awesome. I was really impressed actually, i guess i thought it was gonna be more dirty and gross, with people getting mugged left and right.

This is us in Dylan's Candy Bar, only the most awesome lolly shop ever. They even had Cadbury stuff imported from good ole Eng-land. The steps were clear with gummi lollies through them, and they did gourmet sundae's and cupcakes. Man, that place was good.

On our first night there we went to see a broadway show. We saw The Drowsy Chaperone. Kind of a remake of an old 1920's production, very cool. We got awesome seats too, right up the front of the first balcony. Reminded me of the good ole days of The Sentimental Bloke.
"Workin' for the boss, toilin' for an income..." Oh, it's a shame, fair dinkum!


We visited the Heartland Brewing Co in Park Ave. They had some great beers and awesome food. I hope you'll notice my t-shirt in this pic, Oh YEAH!!! Representing!
It was awesome to have the family over here, probably the best holiday i've ever been on.
So there it is, after a crazy time with wedding bizo and all that, it was awesome to kick back and go nuts in NY.
