We bought a house together last summer and moved in during the fall. It's been great spending the weekends finding things to fix up, and we dream of finishing the upstairs. If anyone wants to come visit, we have the ping-pong table set up in the basement and the Weber grill is just starting to peak out from under the snow. In January, Jessica accepted a position as director of special events with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Minnesota, where she is in charge of three fund-raising events this year, including a five-thousand-person 8k road race.

Our e-mail addresses are NCCSEF@aol.com (Reid) and JILarsen@aol.com."
