dinner with a friend

I can't wait until tonight! My dear friend Michelle and I are having dinner out and I cannot wait for the lovely conversation and fellowship. She's also bringing her new, precious little girl!!! I know that Michelle is going to have some very wise words for me as we discuss the upcoming wedding and my new life to come. I very much value the advice and guidance that the women in our church have to offer. I know that I have learned a lot from them over the last few years and still have a lot more to learn. I am so thankful for these wonderful women that God has placed in my life.

Engaged

Well, I'm engaged!! I am so excited and ready to get through the next 5 weeks.

He proposed last Friday night. It was January 15th and I was so surprised. I am such a big bawl bag that I just knew I would cry if someone ever asked me to marry him. Well... he cried while he was asking and for some reason all I could do was laugh. I guess it was excitement or nerves... I'm still not sure. I did cry after the ring was on my finger but spent almost the whole rest of the evening laughing.

After the first hour or so, I couldn't hold it in any longer. We drove all over the place telling my family. I was just SO excited!!! They are all very happy for us, of course. :)

We have already set a date! February 27th. Yes, I know... it is very quick!!! We are ready and we are going to have a small wedding. Lots to do!!!
