Engaged

Edited to add: yes that is the ring, yes it is on my left hand. The photos are from my Mac and therefore backwards. Much more info to come + thank you for the well wishes. We are, of course, excited.

    Being engaged is fun (most of the time… wedding planning can be not-so-fun), but being married is even better.

    I’m over in the Uk and read your blog all the time, I got engaged just before Christmas and the newly engaged feeling is so grogeous, it feels like you are on top of the world!! Seeing your photos brought all those feelings back!
    Can’t wait to start reading about your wedding plans!
