We got the news today that we have our ACTUAL on the book "wedding date". Whoo Hoo!!

(drumroll please)

And the count down begins... :)

And a little extra snip-IT! (just for fun!)

My sweet got some new glasses...and I just love them!! We have been trying to do this for months... and finally we accomplished what should have not been such a hard mission!

4 Days of BLISS.

Surprise #1

Chris thought what better way to celebrate my birthday then with my Mom & Aunt Debbie! Two of my most favorite people of all.

October 9th.

3:15pm

Surprise #2

I had instructions to take a half day off of work. First I would go to lunch with my mom and Debbie before they had to leave for Houston (little did I know that I would see them a little later). Next, Chris and I would do a little something special for my birthday. What would that be?? Well I didn't know....

A trip to the Aquarium! This penguin below was my favorite.

4:45 pm

Surprise # 3

Now. Be sure to look real close at this picture..... REAL CLOSE!

If you heard the story from Chris's side....he had to ask me to marry him 4 times before I said yes. But if you heard it from my side I said yes the first time...he just had a hard time hearing me with the tears, joy, and shock all mixed in! I am so excited to spend my life with my best friend!!

9:12 pm

Surprise #4

Chris planned a surprise birthday/engangment party for me. How great is he!?!

9:14pm

Surprise #5

Two of my very best friends flew in to be here with me! Thanks Amy and Ashley for making my weekend so special. No one could ask for better friends!!

Some of my closest girls!!

Aren't I a lucky girl!

4 days of complete bliss...and a future full of love and excitement.

down south

Chris and I went to South Carolina in September to visit my family. He hadn't gotten the chance to meet the other part of the Wirth family yet. So finally he got to meet the other half!

We got to spend time by the pond and test our fishing skills! Needless to say Chris is a little better than me, considering he will bait the hook and take the fish off once he catches something. I'll leave that dirty work up to him and my dad!

But most of all we had fun spending time with D, G, and J!
