I'm the luckiest man in the world. Five years ago today I married my high school sweetheart, my best friend, and the love of my life. On September 19, 2009 Jenn and I walked down the aisle at the stunning St. Regis in Monarch Beach. It was a picture perfect day and was the start of what has been an absolutely incredible five years.

In the past few weeks both Jon Stewart and John Oliver have done incredible segments on their shows about how discrimination is alive and well in 2014. Jon Stewart used his first episode back on The Daily Show after a two week break to talk about the Ferguson shooting and the fact that racism is still alive and well in the US today. And John Oliver used his show, Last Week Tonight to bring up the embarrassing fact that in 2014 we are still paying women less then men. 

Last week I purchased the Winston Set from Harry's.com. Harry's is a shaving website where all they sell are razors and shaving cream. I've heard about Harry's from a couple of the podcasts I listen too, and it just so happened that I was listening to one of the latest episodes of the /filmcast when I realized that I needed some new razors. I went on their website and was super impressed with their offerings and went big with their top of the line Winston Set. 

A year ago this weekend I was at Hoag Hospital suffering from by far the worst sickness I've ever experienced in my 27 (almost 28) years of life, salmonella. That weekend Jenn had a ton of things planned including seeing a Shakespeare play being performed at a nearby park. More on that in a bit. What's even more important though is the difference a year can make from being in the hospital to having the great weekend that just transpired.

A month back Jenn and I had a great time at the OC Great Park when we went to the Wine Festival. Because of the Wine Festival, Jenn went on the OC Great Park website and saw they have movies in the park on Friday and Saturday nights. Most of the movies are kid movies but they also have Flashback Fridays and this weeks movie was one of my all time favorite movies, Back to the Future. 

A couple of weeks back Jake got offered his first full-time job since graduating college. He accepted the position and will be starting (will have started by the time this posts) on Tuesday May 27th. Jenn and I couldn't have been prouder of him so we decided to go out the three of us and celebrate at Ruth Chris here in Irvine. Before we went we had some and and went to (its Jake of course) take pictures to commemorate the moment.
