One Year Anniversary in Cabo San Lucas

For our one year anniversary, we went to Cabo San Lucas and stayed at the Hotel Twin Dolphin. The weather was hot, hot, hot but the hotel was very empty as it was off-season.

Memorial Day in Mammoth

First Married Christmas

Our first Christmas as a married couple was spent in Boston with Leslie's parents and Leslie's sister and her husband, Brian.

Honeymoon in Italy

John & Leslie honeymooned in Italy for 2.5 weeks. The first week was spent in Rome (one of Leslie's favorite citys), the next week was spent sailing along the Amalfi Coast south of Naples on a small sailboat. They visited such picturesque places as the islands of Ischia & Capri & the beautiful cities of Positano, Sorrento, Amalfi, Ravello, Herculaneum & Pompeii, to name but a few. When the sailboat trip was over, they spent the last few days of their honeymoon shopping in Florence (where Leslie spend time taking art classes after graduating from college).

Mountain Elegant

After 4 years together, John & Leslie finally made it 'official' on September 11, 2004 in Aspen, CO. The fun-packed weekend kicked off on Thursday evening at The Cantina for margaritas. The next day was the spectacular rehearsal dinner at the Aspen Mountain Club on top of Aspen Mountain. Saturday brought unseasonably hot weather and a beautiful wedding at the Snowmass Chapel, conducted by the bride and groom's good friend, Patrick Shelby. The reception was held at the Hotel Jerome. The next morning everyone met for a farewell brunch, held in the garden at The Hotel Jerome.
