happenings

wow a lot has happened. I am engaged as of May 2010. he had the most romatic proposal at point lobos in carmel. we were at china beach when he got down on his knees on the narrow, dirty, overgrown stairs leading down to a white sand beach with baby seals! it took me a good 30 seconds AFTER the ring was on my finger for it to register. I was too busy being perturbed that his nice slacks were getting dirty and wondering why he was kneeling. haha.

yesterday he picked up the keys for our first house together. yes, i know, we are not married yet! i do not plan to move in until after the wedding in Feb. :) however we ate our first dinner out of plastic containers while sitting on the deck overlooking the garden and koi pond. later that evening we did our first home improvement task and tore down the cabinets in the laundry room since the new washer dryer will be too tall. (we bought a fancy front load system. ) yay!!!

life is good. very very good. well worth the wait. :)
