Love This!

Maybe it's because I was born in the wrong era, as Mom says, that I love this so much. I love the classic look of what these guys do.

Theme

So I didn't think I'd have any kind of theme for my wedding other than simple and nothing extravagant... I seem to be looking at the same kinds of things though at the most random places, and this weekend while in Oklahoma with Jeanette I broke down and said I guess I have a theme... A Thrift Store Wedding... Crazy huh?? I figure since I've bought everything so far from a thrift store of some sort that I would make it my theme... Really though other than the stuff I've bought it's still a simple wedding. I'll tell you my ideas and show you what I've bought in another post... I have to get back to work, but thought I'd fill y'all in on what I've just come to terms with lately... :)

A few Pictures

This will be the eternal battle in our lives... He's a die hard Aggie fan who graduated from the school, and I'm a die hard Longhorn fan who didn't graduate, but had a few siblings who did so it counts! :)


Trying to click our heels... obviously it didn't work so well... :)


This is part of the Japanese Tea Gardens where Rusty proposed. We were there a few weeks before with a group of friends from church. I'm thinking this is where he got he idea from...


A picture of us again at the Tea Gardens.



A farther away picture of us. It is a really pretty bridge and area that we were at.

I'll post more pictures soon. Some of the ring, and tell you all about wedding plans... Hopefully not too much as I'd get sick of reading about them if it wasn't me blogging about it! :)

It's Official

It's official.

Rusty and I are getting hitched! We went to San Antonio on Saturday (sorry it's taken me son long to get this blogged about! It's been a busy week!) and we went to see Jonathan and my parents who were hanging out with him at the hospital while he got some Potassium infusion (He's doing fine. Home and back to his old self). My parent's asked if we wanted to go to lunch with them and Rusty very quickly answered no, and I just said, I guess not. So Rusty and I went to the Japanese Tea Gardens and were walking around. He had been wearing this necklace chain for a few days and any time I asked about it he just said it was his CTR medallion. Me, not really catching on, just shrugged it off as it really was his CTR medallion! So on Saturday while walking around I asked him about it again. He finally said he would show it to me, and started to take off the chain. He then got on one knee and took the ring off the chain and asked! Obviously I said yes...

I'll have to post pictures of the ring. I, for some reason, haven't taken any on anything but my phone, and those just aren't that good. He actually made the ring I wear right now since he has designed one that isn't ready yet. So, I love this ring, and I'm sure I'll love the other one too!

The date is October 15th for the wedding and October 16th for the reception. (Yes Tami, we moved it up again, but only so we could get the place for the reception. Believe me, it was worth it to move it up one week!) We just signed the contract for the place we're having the reception, and I LOVE IT! So, I will be getting in contact with all of you to get your addresses!

How exciting is this??

Amy, I'm finally joining you and Jillian. I guess Ashley and I couldn't hold off forever once we found the right ones! :)
