I'll be going up for the Chris Meyer Bachelor Party this weekend, and will hopefully take care of the groomsman tux thing before I get up there. Hope the shower goes well for Jane too. And lil' Cameron's dance recital on Sunday too. A lot of stuff going on!
Kate and I got engagement pictures taken over the weekend and should have some results of that soon. Will let everyone know when we find out. Same with choosing flowers and things.
Katie and Noah: We're all praying down here for your peace of mind during this tough time of transition. Anyone want to talk, we're here.
Chris and Jane: Also with you guys as the wedding plans are wrapping up and another move is on the way for you. We hope you are able to find a place that works for you and that lets you play Risk.
Mom and Dad: We're praying down here for Grandma as she is hopefully recovering her strength. Next time you talk to her, let her know we're thinking of her and Kate's family asks about her too. We hope you guys are managing well and looking forward to the next few months of changes and celebration! Take care all.

Our fantastic visit to Virginia!
Delicious home cooking, picnic and wine tasting at a vineyard, hiking to waterfalls, playing dress up, getting nails polished, stroll at Virginia Tech, Gizmo entertainment, SceneIt and peanutbutter pie. It may have been a long travel, but we enjoyed every moment of our visit. Thank you Kate and Jason for a fantastic weekend!

Wedding Website (9/16/06)
Here's the link:
http://weddings.theknot.com/pwp/view/co_main.aspx?coupleid=3248080752700275&guestpassword=
It's got the information related to the wedding as well as to the registries at The International House of Pancakes, T.J. Maxx, and Bed Bath & Beyond. Only one of those is real though.
Hopefully Kate and Noah had some offers on the house today and the whole experience is going OK. Look forward to seeing you guys this weekend if you guys are still able to make it. If it seems like too much right now, we would completely understand. Talk to you guys soon.
Chris, looking forward to the "garbage plates", but I don't know how to...how you say..."golf", so we shall see when I get there.
Mom and Dad, hope you guys are well and enjoying the warmer weather (we got it today, so it should be up there on Monday).
This was Jason.

I'll have the fish
Chris & Jane: Just got the invite today. Looks great and just wanted to let you know we'll be there. Hope all is well with everyone.
Updates: Gizmo got a haircut so he doesn't look like a mound of hair anymore, I'll be done with tests n things as of Tuesday night, Kate is looking around for other jobs because she's pretty much done with her current one. "Done" as in, "not liking it". Things are looking good though because the semester's over and the college kids are leaving town, so that leaves us "locals" here. Kids with their rap music nowadays.
Mom: Curious about the which hotel we're staying at for Curtin/Meyer bonanza.
All: We will have a website with information regarding reserving rooms to sleep for the Brennan/Meyer union most likely by next week.

Brennan/Meyer Wedding 2006
Kate and I have found the perfect place for us to get married and here it is. It's called Valhalla Vineyards in Roanoke, VA. The place has this amazing view, a great sized area for the wedding outside, a perfect room for drinking wine, dancing, drinking wine, eating, and drinking wine. If you want to check out the inside and some more info: valhallawines.com, click on Event Planning.We also met with a great photographer today that pretty much matches our style perfectly. Things are getting pretty exciting. Now that w
e've found the place, we'll be continuing with the next steps. So it's official, it's Saturday, September 16, 2006!! We'll let everyone know things as we find them out. We look forward to the Easter visit. Chris and Jane: we're most likely not going to the music festival in TN, but maybe we can work some visit out while you're down here.

Arm Update...
Looking good. No follow up appointments scheduled.
I do need to build up the strength again (slowly because it is still sensitive).
Doc did explain that I may not get my arm to bend and straighten as far as I used to, but no worries - I'm not convinced of that and will keep working it to try to get it back to the way it was. Wish me luck!

Kate, Gizmo, and I have been down in Florida since Wednesday morning because her grandmother's health has declined pretty severely. She was admitted into the Intensive Care Unit and has been there since Tuesday night.
She and Kate's mom had gone to Las Vegas and airplane ride back she began hallucinating slightly. She had also been having problems with her foot and it was getting to the point where the doctors were considering removing the foot or toes, due to very poor circulation. If it had to come to removal of the foot, they would have to use a very heavy anasthetic, and she would most likely not make it through this kind of surgery.
Difficult decisions didn't have to be made though, because she's doing much better now and has been moved to a different room and is in much better spirits. The color is returning to her foot and it's obvious she's in a better state of mind. Where it is right now, Kate, Gizmo, and I will probably be coming back on very early Sunday morning. I hope everyone is doing well even though we haven't talked in a while. Take care everyone.

Ideas...
These lanterns take votives or tea lights...
Oil lamp?...
A centerpiece from a wedding Donnie (Noah's mom) went to...
This could use more candles and pebbles surrounding them, but you get the idea...

Happy Spring!
And Happy St. Joseph's Mom! Dad was right...Oliver woke up and picked out the cherry cheese cake. It was great having you both over. Thank you for your help with dropping things off at the house. Cameron got ready for school this morning with her clean mirror (and 5 barrettes I think).
Oh and this message has been posted with our cable modem - Woohoo!!!

Arm Update:
Good news! Doc said - X-ray looked good, can hardly see the fracture.
He moved my arm around a bit. That wasn't much fun but I was surprised how much further he could move it than I could...hmm...and then my ears started ringing...started getting warm...probably would have fallen over if I was asked to stand up. He mentioned doing another x-ray and talked alot but I really couldn't hear him at that point. Had some time to chill before next x-ray which looked fine - he wanted to check my forearm b/c of where I said some pain was. I guess I'm just a wimp.
So now I get to work my arm 3-4 times a day for about 5 minutes (Fortunately, he seemed to repeat most of what he might have said earlier b/c I really missed it then). I go back in two weeks.

Her hand looks like a model's
Sorry Cameron, no puppies for Gizmo. But you will be gaining an Aunt Kate. The center stone is Kate's great-grandmother's and the hand belongs to Kate. Gizmo was indifferent to all the festivities.
Kate and I are throwing around some ideas for exactly when the Date will be. We're thinking September and we're thinking something small. Discussion and opinions can begin....now

Hope everybuggy had a nice weekend. Our trip to camp took a turn within one hour of arrival. I was informed by staff at Lewis County General that I have a "closed radialhead fracture". (I broke my left arm again. This time in an ice skate fall) Yes, I got to reminisce about missing 4th grade Field Day and celebrating the joyous victory of the "mean green team" as I listened to snowmobiles and looked out at the ice rink and plastic sled surrounded by "the best snow all season". Or atleast that's what Noah kept calling it during our 6 hour emergency room trip the next day. Four x-rays and one sling later I was back at camp with a margaurita on Saturday. I'm feeling okay, considering I'm broken, and will be trying to find a local doctor to fix me tomorrow. (I said I'm okay mom, don't worry.) Will keep you all posted.
