The Raveonettes

We had a great night in San Francisco earlier this month. We stopped off for pizza on the way into town. We spend hours just walking around the city and talking--even bumping in to a couple of old friends on market street.

The show was at a club called Bimbo 365--a name that made me very nervous. To our surprise the club was quite nice, and not the dilapidated strip club I had imagined.

Christopher has wanted to see the Raveonettes as long as I have known him. He finally got to last week! The band was great live, and played all of our favorites. the audience begged for an encore, and after they came back on stage, some geek in the audience yelled out "You guys seem like really nice people." When the Sune tried to figure out what the guy had said, he was to embarrassed to answer. We danced the night away--although most of the hipsters in the club where way to cool to show any interest. It was a great show!

P.S. How cute was my date!?!?!?!

Introducing the Fantastic Felds

For years, our friends have been telling us that we need to keep a blog. We each have our own (neglected) blogs, but no family blog has yet emerged--until now!

By way of introduction, We are the Feld family. We are Christopher and Amanda Feld, or Amandapher as we became in September of 2007. We met through 2 of our mutual friends (who later married each other), in Salt Lake City, Utah, and got married 10 months later in Sacramento, CA. We have been married for 4 awesome years, and currently live in the California Bay Area.

Christopher grew up in Pittsburgh PA,  and moved to Utah with his family while in college. He has a BA in History from the University of Utah, and an MPA from Brigham Young University. Christopher is an avid backpacker and Star Trek fan. He works in HR.

Amanda grew up in Elk Grove, CA, and moved to Utah to attend Brigham Young University (and meet her sweetheart). She has a BS in Psychology, and did some Masters work in Marriage and Family Therapy (a discussion for another day). Amanda enjoys sewing, singing, and watching old movies. She is currently looking for work, and creating home goods for her Etsy shop, Precocious Inc. (www.etsy.com/shop/precociousinc).

Well, anywhoo. That is a bit about us. Hope you enjoy following our many adventures!
