XMas Photo/Germany/Visit/Germany

A bit outdated but Kindra's Dad put this together from his Christmas photos. It is amazing...



It has been a busy first couple months of 2007. Unfortunately it has been mostly work related so far. In January I traveled to Munich for something called the IPMMM. This is a massive marketing conference held annually by EA. It's all secretive but imagine a dark room where everyone is hungover for eight hours a day, three days in a row. That's what it is but you have to take notes.

These are some of the 250 people I was there with. Jonas, Loz, Stephen and me with the facial hair of a young boy.

We've also been working on our first digital campaign for EA and that has been really interesting. By interesting I mean horrible but the site should be very cool when it's done. I'll be spamming everyone to check it out in the next week or so.

Things have also been crazy with Kindra's work as they are in the middle of a massive campaign for (a client that she won't let me say because she is a super secretive lawyer). Anyway, you'll see the spots soon.

Early Feb found me repeatedly attempting to get people to celebrate my birthday. I succeeded twice with a few drinks after work on the big day and a smaller dinner with friends the following day. We went to a Japanese restaurant which was great. Teppanyaki style so they cook in front of you. The chef threw a piece of cooked egg at me and I caught it in my mouth, which was pretty amazing.



This last week we had Gina and Joe visiting. Gina and Kindra have been friends for about forever and Joe is pretty dang cool so it was a good time. We went to Berlin for a weekend to site see and look around. I attempted to take the same photo I did when Kindra and I were there last March but messed up the angle.



Then...

Late Wedding Video

While our memories of this day are wonderful, the footage is not. In addition to being filmed without sound, it was filmed by a 17 year old with a shaky hand.

This is the sum total of five hours of audio free footage supplemented by one hour of footage with audio...

Prague

Prague was beautiful and we celebrated Kindra's birthday with nice meals and plenty of Pilsners.

Christmas, New Years and a little USA

It has been forever since our last posting...but aside from work we've been relatively tame in our endeavors.

We did host a Thanksgiving dinner at our place in which Kindra did a phenomenal job of cooking a tasty meal for 13. Not a bad first effort and you couldn't have fit another body in our apartment.

In early December I ended up stateside for some work meetings in Vancouver, BC and Portland, Or. Was able to ski for a day in Whistler before my meetings and the timings made it so I could surprise my dad for his birthday. Was also great to see the rest of the family and a bunch of friends. My flight back to Amsterdam went through SF so I was able to have dinner with my mom and Ben on a 24 hour layover. Was great to see everyone and just get acclimated to US time again before having to go back.

After returning Kindra and I made it through a couple of hectic weeks at work before heading to England for Christmas. We stayed with Nikky's family in a small town called Litton Cheney. Was great to meet everyone but I'll let the video show the trip...

After returning from England we made a quick trip to Leiden to get dinner with Henne's brother Nick and his family before New Years.

For the New Year Kindra and I went to a friends house for dinner and ended up staying there to see the fireworks. Amsterdam is insane on New Years. Again, video will do a better job of showing this...

That's about it. This weekend we are going to Prague for Kindra's birthday. So we'll post some photos again soon. Here are some photos from the last few months...
