And for those of you that don't police ten codes.... 10-8 means in service, ready to go!!!

Justin Kohrs -Groomsman

I think that the pictures say it all!! Justin is a crazy redneck. You may see him smashing around town in his big ass truck with stacks, or running around the house chasing the dogs. Oh, he usually has a beer and a mullet too!

Ryan Kohrs-Groomsman

Random Ryan, always good for a random moment! Ryan is a sweet heart, always willing to help! He used to hate beer, now he loves it! He like milk too, he's a truck driving milk man!

Josh Kohrs-Groomsman

My brother!!! Well, I have three of them, triplets and they are awesome!!

Joshua Kohrs-Totally awesome, most like me, well I think! All of us are a like in so many ways! Josh is crazy and hilarious, we both make people crack up! Gotta love the Thizz face and Scuba Steve.

Mike Preston-AKA Bumfight Mike

Mike. Enough said!!

Haha no really. Mike and Amber have been buds since high school days. He has since sucked Chuck into his crazy awesome-ness!! Aren't they cute?!

Since Mike is my best bud, I asked him to wear a dress. Yeah, he refused. But I did hear him say something about a tu-tu.......He's great for a laugh, and has an awesome heart. He knows everything about fires, ho's (ooops hose), cigars and anything that shoots bullets.

Oh and don't give him a Manhattan, trust us.

Meet the Clan!!!

Here's the VonKohrsenhofen Posse. Yup, on broadway!! I will be adding these over the next few days so keep checking back!!!

I have a question!!!!!

Here's the story of how Charlie, Diesel and Otto asked the question!!!

So, lets back track a little bit!!! If you are around us for any amount of time, you will know that we are pretty silly people. We have all too many inside jokes, some of you know some of them. Some examples: Yoda voice and Jedi mind tricks, "I have a question", LARPING, Varp'ing (ick I know!!!) pass the penis game, WHOOP WHOOP, and Tay Tay wheres yo PC!!! So, knowing all those weird sayings, here's why I mention it and how its related to Charlie's, Diesel and Otto's proposal!!

As seen in the exhibit above, Diesel is seen raising his hand, as if he were asking a question. We are constantly messing with our loves, Diesel and Otto. They are two spit ball Boston Terriers, and they are our fur children. And yes, they are completely spoiled rotten! But, as payment, they must entertain us!!!

So, one night, Charlie is stretching Diesel's arms and legs, and says "Mom, I have a question!", raising his little arm and stretching his arm pit out like a little monkey. And, you have to picture Diesel talking in a Yoda voice. Why you may ask? That's because Boston's, well, and most other critters, and, well most everything, sheep, crafty items, anything, talks like Yoda. This is all according to Charlie.

So, we often say all these funny little things to each other and the dogs. It was only fitting that Charlie propose, with the dogs, in our beautiful home, talking like Yoda.

It was a very, very hard few weeks leading up to this wonderful day in our lives. Two close people to me had passed away, and needless to say, I was in a poopy mood that week. Charlie and I finally had some time off for 3 days, and I wanted him to basically entertain me and keep me occupied. I started to cry, I was so upset at the recent deaths, that I was getting all girl like, saying how life was too short and we have been so busy, we needed to go out and do something. Most of you know, we just bought our home last January. Its amazing! We are so proud of ourselves! Go us!!! Needless to say, the year has been a whirlwind. Working a lot and getting settled, our schedules are conflicting, because I just started my job and have little seniority to pick shifts. We know this is temporary, but its still hard! I thought, we need to spend more time together, life is obviously so precious, and because I was sad, I made him feel bad :(

He finally broke down and told me that he did have plans for us the next day, but he wanted it to be a surprise. I know, feeling guilty, am thinking that he is saying this to make me feel better, and didn't really have plans to take me out. That afternoon, we went to some local farms in the area and had a nice evening. I felt a little better, but I thought that he was going to forget about his "planned date" for the next day.

Charlie had a training day, and when he came home, he asked if I still felt up to going out that night. Wow, maybe he did have it planned!!! Later in the day, we were getting ready to go out. Dress nice, he told me, we are going to Flemings in Walnut Creek. Yummm. We both had never been, but were excited to have tasty food and have a date night.

I was waiting downstairs, he seemed to be taking forever to get ready! I snarfed with the dogs for awhile when he came downstairs. Charlie said " I think Diesel sent you a text message." Huh?! So, on my phone there was a message, yup, from Diesel. Said the following: The following shall be read in full Yoda voice until further notice.

"Hi mom before you leave we got you a present. But you are gonna have to work to find it. Yes, mmmmmmmmmm, well......see Diesel for more info"

Humm, still no clue that he was proposing, I'm thinking he's just trying to get my spirits.

Diesel had a little note wrapped around his collar. The note said:

"This is a scavenger hunt. The first clue: Its made in China, you may hit your hand on the fan if your not careful, and its made for LARPERS (live action role players, don't ask)"

The Wii!!!

Next clue: "Sometimes we forget that we have 4 1/2 of these, its the one we use the least". Yes, we have a lot of bathrooms!!! Upstairs to the bathroom we go!!!

Next clue: "Drop and give me 20 you maggots!!! Dad looks so handsome in his class A's" To the man cave!! Charlie's academy picture resides here!!!

Next clue: "when we hear this lid jingle, we get really excited, play dead and high five" To the pupper cookie jar!!!

The last clue, " Mom you are the best fur mom and we love you very much. Raise Otto's hand (like in the picture!) because he has a question, and Dad has a question too.

I read it twice, then it hit me what was going on. I was in shock, couldn't believe it! I took a few steps back. He said some really sweet stuff I am sure, but honestly I can't remember!!! He got down on his knee, in our kitchen, and asked me to be his wife. So freaggin' cute!

I was in shock, for awhile! I had no idea. Come to find out, he had bought the ring in July!! He was just waiting for the right time, and it was perfect.

Happy and more in love than ever before, if that is possible, we are planning the best wedding every!! I hope you enjoyed the story, and look soon for more fun stuff!!!

Love

Amberlina

It all began....

Chippie met Dispatcher. Chippie thought that Dispatcher was really cute. Chippie charmed dispatcher, and they fell in love!!!



Charlie and I have been together for almost 4 years now, and it has truly been the best years of our lives! We have experienced so much together!! But where did it all begin you may ask?! Well he res the story of how a Chippie met a girl and fell in love!



It was 4 years ago this month that we met. Charlie had been searching for hot chicks online, but didn't have too much luck. Until that one day, he saw my profile on Yahoo Personals! I know, kind of a weird way to meet someone that you actually like, looks like their pictures, and is cool as we are! Most people think that online dating is for creepers, but we were on there taking a shot at love!

Charlie began writing me cute little messages, about his hobbies. He did this to "woo" me in, as we had the same interests. He thought that it was so awesome that I rode motorcycles and played in the dirt, and that we were in similar fields. He tested me on what a Corvair was, and I think that's when he was in love!!! The message sat in my email for awhile, and when I finally read it, I thought, he sounds kinda cool, but he said something that made me wonder. He said that he worked in "transportation". I thought that this was odd. Was he a school bus driver? Cal Trans maybe? I was curious, so I asked more. After finding out he was a cop, I told him that I usually don't date cops because of their bad raps. He then quickly advised me that he wasn't a cop, he was a Highway Patrolman. Cute, right?!!



We chatted late nights when I got off of work in the ER, until the wee hours on the am. We always were laughing, it felt like we had known each other forever! Finishing each others sentences and thoughts, we decided that we should meet up.


It was December 8th, a Friday. We were going to just meet up for dinner, I had plans to attend a co-workers Christmas party. I remember getting to the restaurant first, and I was so nervous! What if he really wasn't the person that I thought he was?? Or he had three arms?! When he walked up, I was immediately put at ease, he was the guy that I had been chatting with all these weeks! The initial awkwardness went away immediately, and we talked the whole time, didn't even really eat! Time flew by, and it was time for me to leave, but I didn't want to! We were having such a great time, so I asked him if he wanted to come with me to the party.



Awhile later, I picked him up, and myself, Charlie and bridesmaid to be Michelle all went to the party at Sue's house. Immediately, all the girls were asking about this guy!! I told them that this was our first date, and they soon all loved him! He was a little quiet, and shy, but said some of the funniest things! And he was such a good sport! He laughed with all of my friends, played games, and was very polite. Sue, our favorite loud mouthed friend, said, "hey Dennis!". I poked her, and said his name is Charlie!!! Her response?! "Don't worry, she'll have another one next week!!". Ahh! I was so embarrassed!!



Who would have thought that 4 years later, Dennis is still around!!!



Christmas time came, what a romantic time of year!!! On New Years Eve, Charlie asked me to be his girlfriend, cute huh?! It was official from there, although we still argue on when our "true anniversary" is!



A few weeks later, I took Charlie on his first trip to Monterrey. We stayed in a beautiful room on cannery row facing the ocean. Grubbed on some tasty shrimp at Bubba Gumps, went to the aquarium, and took lots of silly pictures! That night, we had such a good time. Out in the hot tub Charlie told me he loved me. It was the most romantic moment and one of my favorites still to this day!



From there, we were spending every minute we could together. Going to the cabin, Disneyland, camping and dirt bike riding, to Tay Tay's crazy random party nights. Charlie was always the best sport, and we both got along so well with each others families. Mine, being the "redneck" species, with our loud outbursts, beer pong, and just weirdness; and Charlies with all the women who were in love with me the minute that they had those Oreo balls! Our families fell in love with their new additions!



Since then, we have had many wonderful adventures. We have had two puppers out of wedlock, Diesel-Swiffer, and Otto Yohan VonKohrsenhofen. They are the loves of our lives, and a lot of our world revolves around them, so they think! We bought our home together, The VonKohrsenhofen Compound in beautiful Brentwood. We love our home, and we can't wait to grow together as a couple and as a family.



We hope that you enjoy reading about our wedding planning adventures!
