Wedding gift from the 'rents

The Kennedy family spent a few days together driving around the Irish country side. One of our objectives was to hunt down a piece of crystal that we would like as a gift from my parents. We did spend quite a bit of time on the hunt and at least mom was smart enough to grab a business card from the first dealer we came across. When Lindsey and I returned to the UK empty handed we gave the very first guy a call and asked him if he could use his contacts with Heritage crystal to track down a piece that we both liked. With an error or two in delivery attempts we finally received the piece and have enjoyed it ever since. Thanks Mom and Dad. Please enjoy the craftsmanship and brilliance of crystal that is still hand carved/cut.

Thrill of the Year

A month or so ago a group of 9 people - mostly co-workers - decided to jump out of a plane together. We did not tell our superiors about it until after the fact. It was a fantastic time and look forward to my next opportunity to jump again. I am pretty sure that everyone in the group felt the same way.
