Back when Friday firework cruises were a thing we went on one!

Big thanks to Deena for capturing this genuine moment at brunch, it is very us. Hope you all have someone that looks at you like Kelle looks at Evan.

These two fantastic amis came all the way from Strasbourg to camp on the beach with us 🏝 When you can still have fun even if a car breaks down, you know you've got some great friends.

Beach times are the best times.

First time we all had a walk along the coast at Seacliff in Aptos with Wendi and Larry!

East coast beaches aren't too shabby either, but they are chilly!

This is a pretty good summary of all the fun we usually have with Deena.

Finally a normal Kelle face, views of La Jolla on our roadtrip down the California coast.

💕💕💕

First dive together!

Chapter 1 of making Deena go snorkeling in Kāneʻohe Bay. 💖 Apologies in advance for the next time it happens.

The most amazing one year old birthday for our friendʻs adorable twins gave us this gem, what a treat.

This is how we feel about dogs, we love them! Good memories with a few of the Barba pups.

First hike on a date on Olomana, the three peaks we can now see from our driveway.

Classiest New Years party we've ever been to, at the Todd and Emily's in King of Prussia.

Family photo before Kelle popped the question. Otis and Evan didn't know what was coming.

Kelle finally popped the question!

Mānoa Valley joining us in our engagement celebration

This is totally normal.

Trip to Big Island with Deena, first time these two future siblings-in-law met!

Lava field hiking.

The best photobomb Deena has ever made happen, in a crater no less 🌋

Within six months of dating, Evan had an ACL reconstruction and two weeks later Kelle had her thyroid removed. What a happy couple.

Views of Waimea Canyon on Kauai.

First photo together on the Pali Puka hike.

Views of New York from the top of the Met.

Snorkeling at Electric Beach, always a good adventure.

"She sweeps me off my feet" - Evan

Possibly one of our favorite travel photos so far, outside an izakaya in Shizuoka, Japan. Who knows who the enthusiastic man on the right was, but he insisted on a picture with us, kanpai! 🍻

So photogenic, clearly making the most of the Fushimi Inari Shrine in Japan. ⛩

First time making it to Pipeline to watch a competition together.

Beach picnic after Evan's surprise birthday present: skydiving on north shore. The first and only time Kelle will ever leave a perfectly good plane on purpose.

Evan didn't let that recent ACL surgery stop him from walking 15 miles around NYC.

A whole 7 months after starting to date, Evan joined for Liz and Josh's amazing wedding in Philly. He survived meeting the whole fam and decided to stick around.

With SO many things to do in El Dorado County, we were luckily able to squeeze in gold panning (mid-winter, with heated water, usually for elementary school tours of course).

5pm: "We'll probably be jetlagged after traveling and won't stay up late" 1am: "🎶See the line where the sky meets the SEA it CAAAALLSS MEE🎶" Every. Time.

After a long flight, sleeping in the Narita airport (due to a typhoon), and a few hours on the train to Shizuoka, we were just...a little bit...tired.. we finally made it to the conference.

Again, get yourself someone that looks at you like Kelle looks at Evan.

Go Hanshin Tigers! 🐯 ⚾️

The 900 year old Byōdō-in Buddist temple in Uji, Japan. This temple is on the 10 yen coin.

A replica of Byōdō-in, built on the windward side of Oʻahu in the 60s to commemorate Japanese immigration to Hawaiʻi. The Koʻolau mountains in the backdrop might be a better sight than the original...

We are very good at art museums.

Promotional photo booths should be standard at movie theaters.

Venus Distillery on the Westside of Santa Cruz - if you have a chance, give them a visit!

Ridge hike goals along the Koʻolaus.

The Barbaʻs in Hawaiʻi!

Braving the cold of Alexandria to see these two who always warm our hearts 🥰

Cascade Head, OR

NOAA Ship Hiʻialakai and RV Atlantis. Evan was at sea on the Hiʻialakai in the tropical Pacific, and Kelle on the Atlantis in temperate Pacific and tropical Atlantic. A rare sighting together in OR!

Kelle's research brings her to the open ocean off of Oʻahu on a regular basis. Evan gets to tag along driving the boat around to scoop up water

Lovely visit to see Carrie on our whirlwind tour of San Diego!

After a 5 hour border crossing back from Mexico, we popped in to visit the Holz family. Thank you for staying up to see us!

Waimea Bay during a calm summer day. One of our favorite places to see XXL waves in the winter!

UCSB fam trip out to Oʻahu! When are you folks coming back to visit?!

(¬ _¬ )

Evan *definitely* didnʻt tear his ACL to get out of the marathon he agreed to run with Kelle in 2017. However, she didnʻt forget that agreement, and settled for the King's 10k a few years later.

San Diego breweries know how to do their roof top terraces.

Correct dino themed outfits for Christmas 🦕

Sunset views at the north edge of Kāneʻohe Bay.

🌅 ⛵️

We've had one engagement yes, but what about second engagement? 💍

Taking our gold panning skills to the river, one of these days it will pay off!

Views of the Giant Dipper with friends 💕🎢

It took too many years of living out on Oʻahu, but we finally got Shay and Emily out to visit! Kelle almost smiled.

Putting the wind in windward Oʻahu

Stopping by Coconut Island for a 🎶Three Hour Tour🎵

Beachy days with this ʻohana are always a blast 🌴

Our drinks outnumbered our score above par on our scramble and I am not sure which is more impressive

Whale watching in the ʻAuʻau Channel off the leeward side of Maui with Craig and Maureen!

We couldn't leave this stinker out of the ceremony AND the photo album so the rest of the photos include Otis.

Best friends 💕
