2009 memories in photos

We cooked a lot - and are starting to become quite competent in tex-mex and mexican recipes:


Our mailbox was destroyed. Again.

We thoroughly enjoyed Pi Rho festival (the rocket festival we go to with our friend Sally):
Matt, which his Redorkulator

Having baseball to softball sized hail hit my car with me in it is not something I want to do again:
3/25 Hail

Having old friends move to Austin has been a very good thing. It's been fun cooking and playing Rock Band with Brian & Angela. We've also had fun making sure they've experienced almost all of our favorite Austin restaurants:
At Shady Grove

We may not be fast when it comes to home improvement, but we did finish our half-bath:
Half Bath counter

I like doing Hawaiian Applique:
First-ever Hawaiian Applique

We toured the Astros Stadium in Houston, and Matt posed in the dugout as the manager:


Colorado was beautiful, especially the aspens.


It will be tough to top these Halloween Costumes:


Matt got 2nd place in the Central Market Hatch Green Chile cook-off:


Mi Tierra at Market Square in San Antonio is as kitschy as anything, but wow, is it tasty:


No trip to Cornerstone is complete without a James Brownie Funky Jackhammer from Andy's Frozen Custard in Springfield, Missouri (and this year, a bonus trip to Kansas City)


Our elitist & Cornerstone friends are among the best people ever. It was really great having Sara there this year!


Going on sabbatical is the best. I wish I could do it every day!

Being delayed in Dallas, then re-routed to Vegas did not make for a great start to our Hawaiian vacation. But, we did have the most expensive hamburgers ever (when you factor in cab fare from the Las Vegas airport to the nearest In-N-Out burger). Delicious!


We both hiked Diamond Head in Oahu. This was a big accomplishment for me, considering that 2009 has been the year of heel pain. :(


Hawaii was gorgeous, of course!


Having my parents visit us in Hawaii was wonderful! (and warm, other than the day on Haleakala)


We drove through West Texas. Not a whole lot there, honestly. But, I will remember that it's always fun to road-trip with Matt.


Here's a slideshow of other photos from 2009:
