I’m Gettin’ Hitched!

Well, Rob and I are taking the plunge and getting married next year.  I’m sure some of you knew it was coming at some point, seeing as whenever I talk to you,
you’re always asking, “So, when’s the wedding?” when I didn’t even have a ring.

So, now it is offical- I am truly the luckiest and happiest girl in the world!

Rob was going to buy me a ring for my brithday next month, and do up a surprise proposal, but we were in St. Thomas this last weekend and diamond shopping came up, so we figured we’d pool our resources and buy a ring there where we can get more for our money.

I am way happy, and Rob’s a little relieved that the pressure’s off him to pick out a ring since I picked it out myself. And we decided together, which I think really fits us.  We make a good team and are good for each other, so it’s kind of fitting we decided to buy my ring together.

I won’t have an elaborate proposal story or anything, but I don’t really care since I’ll have Rob for the rest of my life!

You can go to my Flickr photos (link at left) to see a couple more views of the ring and some pics from St. Thomas, including some of Mr. Punkin Head- Dylan!

Rob told me about these and they are way funny! Especially to music geeks like us!  They are spoofs on how a song came to be by artists like Hall and Oates, Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Toto, and Michael Jackson.

You can view them online or download them.  If you downlaod them, the files may end in .txt, but if you delete the .txt so that they just end in .mp4 they will play normally from your hard drive in Quicktime.  Enjoy!

What’s Going on in ‘06

2006 is shaping up to be a busy year!  We have 4 weddings we’re invited
to so far.  3 of which we’ll be able to attend.  Plus my friend Jenny
is joking about doing a Vegas wedding on April Fool’s Day- or is she?
I’m not making reservations until I see a ring.

Mike and Diana are getting married in May in Florida and Jimmy and Beth
are getting married in South Bend in July.  Plus, our friends Ryan and
Kim are getting married in Vegas in June.

We went to a wedding on New Year’s eve, then up to a party at Ryan and
Kim’s in Noblesville.  It was a great way to wind down the new year.

For 2006, I have a few goals I want to accomplish.  One is to start blogging more regularly.

2005 Wrap-Up

Rob and I hope everyone had a great holiday!  If you didn’t get this Christmas card (maybe because I didn’t have a mialing address for you), the you didn’t see our cute Christmas picture from Christmas at the Zoo.  Here it is!

September was totally busy for me, and blogging just kind of fell by the wayside.  I went to 2 Real Estate Workshops, had my 10-year class reunion, and we went to Chicago to see Mikey’s band at Navy Pier.  I was home one weekend of September.
