We are ENGAGED!

Hello family and friends! As you may have heard from us or through the grapevine, Jason and I got engaged on 12/11/10. He proposed at home, in front of the Christmas tree and I can not imagine a more perfect event has ever occurred on earth, EVER.

So, being the type of girl who loves blogs, being newly engaged and the sound of my own voice, I figured what better thing to do than start a lovely wedding blog to share with you fine people. Maybe, just maybe, it will keep my friends and family from hearing about the wedding every 34 seconds and keep my Facebook semi-free of constant, annoying wedding updates that only 7 people care about. If YOU are one of those seven, feel free to follow this blog.

That all being said, we are EXTREMELY excited to begin this journey to Becoming The Mercks!

Here are some pics from our first night as an engaged couple:

Here is the tiny stocking that my ring was hidden in:

Being Engaged means you get to drink champagne and eat three desserts:

 After our dinner we met up with Ariane and John at Mad Dogs on the River walk:

 Just a casual laugh, not trying to show off anything: 

More to come! Thanks for reading.
