That handsome man to the right

asked me to marry him last Thursday night. And I said YES!
Most of you already read it on facebook & the pictures are there.
The answer to the next question is "Next year" :) There is much to be done.
For now, I'm just enjoying the officiality of being engaged to my close friend of 9 years.

    Happy for you! Don't even let the "questions" bother you. B/c after you're married it will be about children. Then it will be about another...and so on. Marriage is so wonderful, you're going to love it.

    I saw these in several stores a few years ago. It is strange, although you can get a lot more gifts under it!! =D

One more Suggestion

My trip to the beach was WONDERFUL. Super relaxing.
My camera however did not have a wonderful trip. Sand is evil.
If you have a camera you love, I'd love to know what kind. Because I now need a replacement.

Back to work tomorrow. boo reality.

    Small Digital Point and Shoot: I have the newest Cannon ELPH series. I had the older version, it was great to me for exactly 4 1/2 years. Died while on vacation in July, I immediately visited RITZ to invest in the latest version. Several members of my family have the same line.

    NIKKON point and shoot, newest version, is supposed to be a good one too.

    Larger SLR: I have a Nikon D60. LOVE IT!

    We have a Canon Rebel, XTi (there is a newer model) which we love, but only if you want a DSLR which can be kinda big.
