| We wanted to thank you all again for coming and joining us in one of the biggest days of our lives. Everything was so nice, this is a day we will remember for the rest of our lives. through it all I was in kind of a daze, but now as I look back on it I can remember some of the things that made it so special to me: the fact that all of my family, other then my little brother who still hasn't told me he isn't going to make it, was able to be there having my dad there to walk me down the isle and dance with, that is truely special having both my parents present and putting me first and not themselves, thank you both! the huge girl squad that I had to help me through everything, Mariah, Kristen, Kelli, Wendy, Susan, Amanda, Char, Cactus, and anyone else I havne't mentioned that helped bring my vision to reality. the dance I had with my big brother and him telling me I am beautiful My sister Wendy's speach Truely One of My Best Friend's, Mariah, speach. thank you for putting so much thought into it and letting me have it. Getting to see some of my best friends that I Haven't seen in a long time, I love and miss all of you. My two beautiful flower girls, I have some of the pretties and sweetest llittle nieces. I was so blessed to be able to have them both there and in my wedding. I am so blessed to have had the weather we had, it was supposed to be a thunderstorm and rain. we had a bit of wind and that was it. I appreciate all of Sterling's help the day of the wedding, the girls said you really stepped it up, Kelly really needed your help. thanks for giving that to him.
I love all the music we picked, I loved the way it all played out! Ok folks we are on our way, too excited to express. we can't wait to see you all and soak up all the time we can with you. if you need to contact us please do at 907-252-1934. well I have had a wonderful week and a half with family fishing, processing fish, smoking fish, canning fish, vac-pac'ing fish. I didn't really think about the wedding, and it was nice. Yesterday I got back at it. Calling, e-mailing, freakin lining out my ducks. I sure appreciate all of those who have, are, and plan to help us with our wedding. YOu all mean so much to us. WE get married two weeks from tomorrow, I can't believe it! I am assuming that i am not the only bride that has gotten stuck doing everything, that sucks! blugh. But, at least it will be just the way I want it. :) So we should have halibut, salmon( fresh and smoked), and beef for sure to share with all. I am hoping to hae some turkey as well, we will see. these are directions to the vacation rental we have in Tahoe. this way if you are staying there, if you want to stop by to visit us, or we are having a bbq you are able to find the house.
Coming from Sacramento:
take Hwy 80 east towards Reno/placerville/Fresno, merge onto US 50 E. stay on US-50 for about 93 miles, up into the mountains, as you are descending into Tahoe right after the avalanche control area it is the first road you come to on your left. If you see N. Upper Truckee you have gone too far. So, left onto Chiapa, stay on Chiapa up the hill almost to the top. turn left into 2176 Chiapa. If you hit Taos Ct. you've gone a little to far.

Going North on Terminal way to E. Plumb Ln., turn left on Plumb Ln., Merge onto US-395 S towards Carson City, take 395 S for about 30 miles, then Fairview Dr. exit 38, turn right onto Fairview Dr./US50/US-395, turn left onto S Carson St./US-50/US-395, turn right onto US- 50 to South Lake Tahoe, follow 50 to Tahoe, through stateline through town, at the Y turn left staying on US-50 towards Sacramento, stay on US-50 through Meyers go through Agricultural inspection, just past N. Upper Truckee Turn Right onto Chiapa, follow Chiapa up the Mountain almost to the top, turn left at 2176 Chiapa Dr., if you hit the Taos Ct. you've gone to far.
Or you can always map quest it or use your high tech, phones. I hope this helps all those who need it. :) I can't wait to be in Tahoe with you all soon. If you are curious what is going on in South Lake Tahoe while you are there other then my wedding look at www.EntertainerTAhoe.com/ they show any and everything going on around the lake. the big house is finally full. there is 1 maybe 2 hotel rooms left. Plesae make contact with us if you are needing to take advantage of one of these rooms. we are officially less then on e month away from leaving for California, oh man it is crunch time. we are buttoning up all loose ends. So I left my house at 6am in the morning Thursday the 27th on my way to Tahoe. I made it there at about 9:30pm. I made every flight and even got into Reno with enough time to make it into Carson City and into Trader Joes before they closed at 9 pm. All day of traveling, but I ended up in my most favorite place ever, Tahoe. I had a wonderful time there with almost all my favorite people from back in my day of living there. I was able to accomplish everything I had needed to do while being there. I went to the food tasting, I met with florist, I went and viewed our vacation rental, nailed down a DJ, got fitted in my dress and my seemstress is awesome!, I even think I found someone to buy my wedding decorations( thank you Malinda), and I got to see my wedding ceremony and reception site, met with my wedding co-ordinator, everything is perfect. I even found old weathered wood to make signs out of. My trip home went just as amazingly. I sat next to this really nice guy on the plane on his way up to Alaska from the east coast to fish. great conversation, I don't know about you guys but that is my favorite way to fly. I have a hard time sleeping so a nice new person to talk to for a few hour, better then a movie. I am feeling so good about everything. we just really need to buckle down and get our music stuff squared away. Kelly and Avery still need to get their clothes. Here in a couple of days we go pick out Kelly's ring, exciting! Oh yeah, I met with my hair and make-up lady, Kate. thank you so much Susan for the heads up there. I feel totally cool about how I am going to look in the hair and make-up area. I am feeling great about everything, it's too much. I will meet up with the lady I have making the dresses for Alora and my flower girls, they are going to be so stinkin cute! I will keep you all posted. If any of you are interested in getting any massage work done while in TAhoe, look no further. My super good Friend Susan Lum will be giving massages at the big house for anyone iterested. there is a hot tub and steam room to help prepare you for this amazing experience. Let me know and I will get you her contact info to schedule some of her time, I know we will be! :) So we are less then two months away. I am going to TAhoe next week to finalize some things and see some friends! Super excited! We still have one room at the big house if anyone is interested, just let us know.
