Kakeli Designs

Hi!

It's been ages! Lots to update I know, but I wanted to post this!

Jeff and I started a business called Kakeli Designs. So if you need any graphic design work done or know someone who does feel free to contact us.

3 Months away!

We're getting closer. We're slowly getting there--although time is flying by!! I can't believe it's already the end of July.

We've got more stuff accomplished. We set up an appt for Mike's Amazing Cakes. Ever seen him on one of the Food Network Challenges? We saw him on the one where he did a cake that was Captain Hook and the Alligator. Or was it a Crocodile? It was so realistic looking, he really does do amazing cakes. www.mikesamazingcakes.com

I found my dress and Jeff found his wedding band. We put a deposit down for the food. Lots more to do, but we've made a dent. We've very laid-back people, our wedding planning has been laid back and the wedding & reception will be laid back.

Good times to be had by all.

The Date

We've chosen a date! Sunday, October 26, 2008. According to The Knot, that is 218 days away from now.

And I have made a decision!! I know, scary! Emily's going to be my maid of honor. So Jeff and I have decided on a date, a location in Everett, a theme and I have a maid of honor.

As Emily so graciously pointed out, we/I have decided on nothing else for the wedding. And she says I need to get my butt in gear.

She might be right :)

Musica Da Coro

We're having another concert!

Saturday, March 22, 2008 at 7:30P. Sno-King Community Chorale featuring world famous pianist Walt Wagner. We'll be singing a Cole Porter medley and the wonderful, amazing John Rutter's Requiem. What a beautiful piece of music.

Edmonds Center for the Arts, $15 Adults, $13 Students/Seniors

We're Engaged!

Yes it's true. After 6 years, we're making it official. Although by the time we get married, it'll be 7 years. We haven't set an official date yet, but we're looking at late Oct 2008.

10 months...

Well it's been a little less then 10 months since the last post. Bad I know. I finally joined the Borg aka Google Accounts. Depressing, but we all must be assimilated.

Let's see. What's been going on since last I wrote. Work has been really good. Been busy and we're expanding.

I'm still taking hula--this January will be 2 years. Amazing enough. It's been fun and exciting, but sometimes I wish we did some performances. We've only had 1 performance since I've been taking and while it's fun learning new dances, I wish we had some motivation to learn them for a performance.

I've also recently joined a chorale. Makes me sound like a horse whenever I hear that word. I prefer choir more. But anyhoot, it's part of the Edmonds Comm College, so technically I'm a student again ^.^ Our first concert is Nov 8th, a patriotic one. After that is our Holiday concert on Dec 8th. It's been challenging and I only wish I had joined ages ago. I first found the choir about 6 years ago or so, but I didn't join. I'm one of those people who likes a strict instructor and I used to hate it when people would talk in class and disrupt everything. So I decided not to do it, just in case it was going to be like that and now I definitely wish I had joined. Oh well.

Jeff and I are going to Vegas next month for my cousin's wedding. Should be fun! Vegas isn't really my kinda town, but I haven't been since I was a kid so it'll be interesting.

As most of you know, Jeff and I bought our first place. It's a cute condo in Snohomish. It's almost brand new and the lady who moved in first was only here for about 5 months. So it's pretty exciting. And unlike our last place, our neighbors are quiet and very nice. Snohomish High is pretty close to us and we can see the football field from here. We got a free fireworks show last night.

That's about it really. Kitties are doing good. Oh and Ozzy actually likes our new home, she's being so nice and friendly! It's eerie really to be able to pet Ozzy and she'll sit there and purr at you. She's not completely sane yet, but much closer then before!! ^.^

Full Hawaii Pics

Here is the link to our Hawaii Pics. I must warn you that if you have a slower connection, it might be time consuming. Jeff created a main page showing each day and when you click on that particular day's picture, it takes you to all the pictures for that day.

We decided to take picture after picture after picture and we apologize if it gets boring to look at our pictures!
