One Year Engaged!

Terry and I celebrated one year of engagement last weekend with a picnic and show at the Hollywood Bowl. I feel so lucky to get to share awesome LA experiences with such a great man.

The school year officially started yesterday for me, and the arrival of students signals the start of a crazy nine months. But the positive crazy far outweighs the negative. Here's why this year will kick last year's butt:

1. We're getting married!
2. Terry will not be in Buffalo for two months, which subsequently means that I get to see him more AND we get to go to all the UCLA home games! GO BRUINS!!!
   
3. We're going on a cruise with my family in November, and I'll be spending my first Christmas with Terry's family.
   
4. Terry will finish his Master's in Electrical Engineering at UCLA in June!
5. I don't have to drive to Northridge for classes every week! (This one may seem to only affect me, but you would feel differently if you had experienced my post-Northridge grumpiness every week.)
   

In other amazing news, Terry has his summer quarter finals this weekend, and then he gets a full month off from school. I am so excited that he has volunteered to design our save the dates and invitations, and this month will provide him the opportunity to get some designing done. Our great friend Edward offered a ton of information and advice about DIY invitations, so we feel ready to get started!

Thanks for sticking with us through the slow months. We will be picking up steam very quickly here, and we'll continue to document all the fun planning adventures!
