Somehow our paths crossed on a website, one comment led to another, email conversation then phone calls. We became friends and felt a mutual connection. It wasn't the right time and I had to let him go to do what he needed to do at that time, and I thought I would never hear from him again. Five months later he contacted me and surprised me at work. It was like seeing an old friend again but for the first time in person. It was so good to see him in person, this guy I became attracted to over the phone. The connection was still there and he asked me to go out with him the next day, Dec.15th 2006. It didn't take long for us both to know how we felt and what we wanted, to be together . On Feb.14th 2008 Mark proposed. We already knew what date we wanted, Dec.15th, our 2 year anniversary of our first date and second chance at love. We feel truly blessed to have found each other.

The wedding ceremony will take place on the 2nd floor landing in the lobby of the Embassy Suites Hotel in Sacramento at 6pm in front of the Christmas tree.

Reception will immediately follow ceremony with a sit down dinner. Theme for reception is "Two hearts as one".

We will leave Sacramento Dec.16 and make our way down the coast to arrive in San Diego Dec. 18th Our ship sets sail at 4pm the 18th. Dec.19th at sea, Dec.20th in port at Cabo, Dec. 21st at sea, Dec.22nd ship arrives at 7am and we will drive home that day.

Mark and I are truly blessed to have found one another. We wanted to share this very special day with our close friends and family. Thank you for your warm wishes and support for our happiness.
