Wow...

I am actually engaged! We are actually planning this wedding! I'm somewhat still in shock...I haven't caught up to the news yet. After our weekend in Vegas, it has been non-stop as we have been busying ourselves with telling our friends and family the good news. First, we told our parents over dinner at a restaurant (under the pretense that we were celebrating Francis' birthday and job change). We told our coworkers, then some friends, and then, last Saturday, we announced it to most of our friends while we were at our friend's birthday celebration. Now I only have a couple more people to personally break the news to, and then I can publicly share the good news on all those social networking sites, like MySpace and Facebook.

I'm really glad that we're shooting for a late September/early October wedding. There is just so much to plan, and I don't even have a color scheme yet! We are meeting with the priest at St. Denis Catholic Church this Wednesday for our initial interview. Hope it goes well! We got tips from our friends who recently got married, and we simply have to remember: "Children of God" and "Soldiers of Christ". LOL!
