Unofficially Official

Dearest Friends, I have some news and I'm so happy about it! As we all know I seperated last year and recently my divorce was final.Well, the big secret was.. I"M ENGAGED!!!!
Patrick proposed a couple weekends ago while we were at the beach! It was such a perfect day. The guys at his work joke that I'm household 6. For those of you army peoples you should get a laugh out of that.We plan on having a small like just the two of us ceremony soon, and a big one later. When we can share it with our friends and family.We are deploying sooner than we expected which leaves us no time to plan or prepare.. so.. the big wedding might have to wait until R&R or when we come home in 2010/2011. We are strapped with training this summer.. and then we go to california in Oct for 30ish days for trng.My mom and his sister say its not really an official proposal since he couldn't afford a ring, but we dont need rings right now anyhow.So anyway.. Just wanted to share! :)I'm really happy.I can't wait for friends and family to meet him!! You guys are going to LOVE HIM!Love you all.. ♥ ME
