Beijing, China

Here are a few pictures from our trip to Beijing this past weekend. We went to the Great Wall on Friday and saw the Forbidden City and Tianamen Square on Saturday.

This is the street near our hotel. Of course there's a McDonalds. Can't get away from them!

Inside the Forbidden City:

Had to ride the camel!

Tropical Cyclone

The sunny skies from July are over. We're getting the first tropical cyclone of the year right now. It's been raining a ton. The rooftop across the street from us now looks like a swimming pool.

Junk Boat

We've been so lucky to have blue skies in HK all month of July, so we rented a junk boat with some friends this past Saturday and went around HK island and out to Lantau Island. So much fun!

Lantau Island. We had to swim to the shore from here.

Another funny sign. This was in the bathroom on the boat.

Our New Apartment

We got all moved into our new apartment this weekend. It's really nice! Here are some photos and a video of the new place. I was playing music pretty loud as I was walking around with the video so you may want to turn down the volume on your computer. I'm happy to have an awesome stereo system to listen to my music again! The shower and remote controlled blinds are also pretty sweet :) Today is also Dave's 29th birthday!!!

So nice to have a larger kitchen and fridge!

Living room

Dave's new favorite game.

Hallway from bathroom through the bedroom and into the living room.

View from our windows of all the other buildings across the street.

Engagement Photos in Santa Monica, CA

Our friend Chris took some engagement photos for us in Santa Monica last week. All photos have been modified/edited by me.

Today, June 11, is also our one year anniversary from the day we met. Best year of my life so far :)
























































I'm also making a wedding website for us, but it won't be ready until we figure out where the heck to have the wedding!
