Getting Closer!

We are another day closer to getting married. This have been so tense over the last week or so getting the finishing touches. Two of those finishing touches are the rings lol I ordered Rachel's ring from a local jeweler and it will be done Friday, the day before the wedding. My ring will also be done Friday. I had my fathers wedding band completely redone, sized and refinished. It should look amazing and has TONS of sentimental value.

Aside from that my tux was ordered two weeks ago and will be done tomorrow. The crappy thing is that if it doesn't fit there is no way to send it off and have it back in time. Gahhhh lol But I will keep you guys updated and should have plenty of pics up from the wedding in a few days!

Today is my birthday!

It feels good knowing that I survived this crazy world another day. I've felt very accomplished over the last few weeks. We have officially set a date for the wedding too! Nov 12th at an old colonial style mansion. Should be a beautiful wedding!

Today's the day! We're engaged!

So today I took the plunge and proposed to Rachel. It worked out perfect and she was very surprised. Today was her birthday and graduation so I figured I would put the icing on the cake. Or at least a decent diamond on her finger lol During her graduation everyone got to say kinda words about her. I was the last person to speak and boy did I have a speech haha Now we're engaged to be married and on cloud 9. I have a video that will be uploaded soon as well as some pictures.

The proposal-


But its off to bed now. I just wanted to share that with everyone before I hit the hay :) Gnite. Jess

Let's kick this off right! Lots of pics and videos :)

This blog is totally devoted to my fiance' Rachel and our random weekend adventures. We will have plenty of pictures and videos posted here and on youtube. We will also be posting areas we will be traveling to in hopes that our readers will offer some insight on things to check out in those areas.

Here are a few kinda random videos of us in the car. Not the typical videos we will be posting but its an idea of our goofy personalities. Kinda even annoying in these but in our defense we were slap happy on the way home from long trips lol

Random video from the last time we were in Florida. This was on Melbourne Beach.
