Those of you also on
uisinger's friends list have likely already read her post this morning and know how happy we are. For those of you who haven't yet heard/read the news:
We're engaged.
We waited to tell everyone on LJ because I wanted us to be able to go up and tell my parents in person. It took a little bit of a wait and a lot of patience - I asked Jo on the 12th - but now that my family knows we can tell everyone we meet. It's a huge relief to be able to talk about it openly.
There are pictures and a brief engagement story in Jo's post, so if you're curious to see what the ring looks like or how I asked,
click on over. She tells the story better than I can.
I'd like to take a second to publicly thank
thevulgartrade. It was through Tim I met my bride-to-be, and I'll always be grateful he told me about a pretty girl who likes opera.
