We cannot wait to celebrate our marriage with all of our friends and family! If you feel inclined to give a gift we would greatly appreciate a contribution to our newlywed fund. While we would never turn down a sentimental gift, the greatest gift we could receive right now is financial assistance to help us achieve our academic goals and to move into a new home. Valentin is hoping to finish his degree, and Katee is planning to apply for CRNA school next year.
