Jared's 33rd Birthday... Still Younger than Laura!!!

Update on information - 8/31/08

Hey Everybody, Laura and Jared here, reporting from Hot and Sunny Sacramento. We are trying to get most of our wedding details finished up. We wanted to update you about some of the vendors we are working with for our Big Day. Our wedding location is at Arden HIlls Country Club ( http://www.ardenhills.net/ ) in Sacramento. Our ceremony will take place outside in the Courtyard and reception to follow in the East Terrace room.

And we have found a really good deal on rooms at the Radisson Hotel ( http://www.radissonsac.com/ ). If you are coming in for the weekend, you can look online at the Radisson website for deals. The best deal we have found was: 1) Go to their site. 2)Click Reservations. 3)Click 'Book Now' 4)Put in the dates for the weekend, 10/17/08 to check out 10/21/08 then click 'Go'. 5)Choose the package that fits your style. The cheapest rooms will be located away from the water area, but there are lots of chairs and places to hangout. Lots of 'Good Times' to be had by all.

We are excited to share our special day with you and look forward to seeing you soon. Love L n J.

Some candid shots

Here are a few pictures of us we thought we’d share with everybody. The above picture was taken over Thanksgiving weekend 2007. He must’ve liked my cooking – he did propose to me after all :)

Taken on Valentine’s Day weekend by my future mother-in-law Petit. We’re enjoying qual time with her, dad Petit, and Marissa watching The Princess Bride… ahhhhh good times!

Two pieces of a puzzle, fitting perfectly together

I’m sad because Marissa and I are getting ready to fly back to CA. Little did I know that in just a couple months after this picture was taken we would be engaged.
