Charlie

Well I have some news that is only semi-wedding related. Chris' little brother, Charles, just called and told me that he is being placed on stand by for deployment to the Middle East. Please keep Charles and the other members of his battalion from Ft. Hood in your prayers. Also, please pray for the Bunch family, including Charles' wife, Charity, and son, Justin, as they prepare for Charlie's deployment. Even though this may sound selfish, please also pray that he will not be deployed until after the wedding. I know that there is nothing more that Chris wants than for both of his brothers to be by his side at the wedding. We love you Charles!!!!

The Beginning

I decided I would start a blog because I have become addicted to reading my friends blogs and their friends blogs and so on. I love everyone's different personalities and funny stories so I decided to keep track of a few of my own as I embark on the most important step in my adult life.

Chris and I began dating on March 8, 2006 and were engaged on April 29, 2006. I know it seems a little fast, but when you know, you know. To my parents delight we decided to slow things down a little and take our time before getting hitched. We recently started making official plans and now I have an official date...March 17, 2007. YEAH!!! I am so excited. The picture is of the chapel where we are getting married. Isn't it beautiful?!? We also booked the reception hall and the photographer so next up on the agenda is the flowers. My mom, future mother-in-law and I are all meeting with 3 florists on Saturday to see what we are getting ourselves into. I would love to hear advice and tips from anyone who wishes to offer it.
