Soon and very soon...

The big day is barely over a week away.

Oy.

Between items getting shipped to the wrong place, me realizing that there are 90 million little details that have to be written to a T, and job hunting (plus Jason pulling in 90 hour work weeks to fund the wedding while I am between jobs)... things are CRAZY.

So, the twenty second update:

Tomorrow I am interviewing with a local nanny agency and to do contract (1 year long) work with the world's largest software company. In addition, I'm applying to teach high school social studies (a local job sort of fell onto my lap, which is the only way I said I would consider teaching). There are options, and who knows if God's best is for any one of them to work out.

We're both looking to get involved with the Youth Group at Church, and our first young marrieds event is this Sunday-- BaconFest 3. Jason just about passed out when he found out that we get to be judges, lol.

So that's that! I need to get back to work now, though, so I hope you all are well! Please say hi and let us know how you are doing!

Sports Love!

I. LOVE. THE. SEATTLE. MARINERS.

We either watch or listen to every game because we rock.

In other news, the invitations are stuff and sealed. They just need addresses on them, which I am writing by hand and my hand writing sorta sucks (as many of you saw on your Save the Dates!) so that's gonna be fun.

This is Tami, by the way. Or Tam. Or Tamalam. Or Tam* (Clintonius Maximus has sole legal rights to that one, sorry). Or Tamikins. Or Thegreatestwomantoeverwalktheearth. Or Tami HiI'mawesome. Or Timtam (once again, Liz has sole legal rights to that one. Long story about Australia, a Christmas package, Matt, delicious chocolate cookies- called Timtams nonetheless- and choking on cookies soggy with hot chocolate because, apparently, in Australia they think Timtams make good straws). Or Rock Star. Or baby (Jason's got that one). Or Cami if you just met me and have hearing problems.

Uh, regardless of all. Of. That. Jason loves the Mariner's, too, so it wouldn't really matter who wrote this!!

We love the M's. We're going to see them play Oakland Thursday night and are serious about at least getting a 16 game pack for next season. Feel free to get us season tickets as THE BEST WEDDING PRESENT EVER! Seriously, that would mean more than a car, or a pimped out home theatre!

Ok, enough rambling. I just am being lazy about typing people into the address book for RSVP'ing to the wedding. I must get back to work!

Go MARINERS!!!

In their honor, here's some photo love:


PS Notice the lovely Seattle skyline in the background
PPS Notice the AWSOME Qwest Field back there, too! You'll hear loads about the Seahawks in probably about a month :)

Wedding Website!

And... still busy!

Hello all! Sorry to say that we're still ridiculously busy. Jason's still pulling 90 hour workweeks and I recently started working at the local water district doing office work. The invitations came Thursday so this weekend's agenda is full.

I need to assemble the invitations, make the little extra insert (with info like where we're registered, the website address, etc), and get the website completely finito. Lots o' work!

So... that said... I have to keep on keepin' on!

I hope you're all having a glorious summer-- love ya!

Love can give a little more

I just wanted to mention that if anyone is in Washington and needs a photographer, particularly in the Eastern part of the state, our guy is AWESOME!

I want my wedding to be fun.

I know there's something to be said for the glorious and elegant wedding. Truly a lovely thing. But... I want mine to be FUN.

I want tea-length dresses (that's just below the knees for you boor-ish boys), cookies in jars, karaoke, laughter, happiness, joy... the whole wedding party is wearing flip flops. JCrew flip flops, nonetheless, but flip flops. BOO-YAH!!

I kind of hope the cake will fall over or something.

I'm not kidding. How funny would that be? Like, it goes crashing down, and then a terrified hush goes over the crowd and everyone looks at the bride (that would be me)... and I BUST OUT LAUGHING! Just BUST it! That would be so stinking funny. And people would remember the light happiness of the event.

I mean, I don't want it to be like sloppy and ghetto. But I want fun. I spoke with my roomies about this, and my friend Jill... I have a lot of guests who would likely be fairly offended by alcohol, and neither Jason nor I drink, so that's fine. But I'm thinking some karaoke is in order... we'll see. But I'm just throwing that all out there.

Thoughts?
