A few more happenings in the Jay-nelle world...

Some photo updates on the fun happenings in our lives...

A few days ago the nursing school at CBU had their dedication cermony, where Janelle,
along with all her classmates, lit candles and dedicated themselves to serving the Lord as
the future nurses of the class of 2010.



As mentioned before, we went on a little picnic outing to Yorba Linda for Jay's birthday last week. We had so much fun spending time together, eating some delicious sandwiches (as you can see) , and having ducks visit us for most of our time there. :)

We've also made our way to Hollywood, where Janelle's parents took us to see Wicked for Janelle's birthday. The play was amazing, and it was great to spend time with family. Thanks Chad and Teresa!

Damaged Bimmer, Thriving Relationship

Yesterday was date day, and it went out almost without a hitch. I say almost because on our way back from the date, a picnic outing to Yorba Linda Regional Park, we were struck--not by a thought or idea, but by a Peterbilt big-rig.



So, the Ultimate Driving Machine has a dent in the rear-quarterpanel fender, big deal, right? At least we're still getting married June 7th--plus, we're still covered by the blood of Jesus and restored to a relationship with the living God--good news all the way around!

Our wedding plans are going great, by the way, Janelle and I went and worked on our invitations with the great Peter Ross last week, where my genius idea to include the Hobbs family crest on the invitations themselves was unceremoniously shot down by my beloved. But, here's what it looks like, as prominently displayed on my grandpa Hobbs' gate in Newcastle, CA.


Here are some more engagement pics, courtesy of the great Bill Blakey, photographer extrodinaire. Enjoy them!





















(And, as a side note, in case you saw the article in the trustworthy Auburn Journal, you can go ahead and utterly disregard all claims that it makes, besides our wedding date and the photo, which are both uncharacteristically accurate).
