I'm engaged!

[Lindsey]

It will be sometime next year I do want to enjoy being engaged for awhile, so I want to wait at least a year... so I can narrow it down to between July and December lol! I'm going to attach a little picture of the ring... well, not the exact ring, but the one I wanted... Scott went in to look at it and said the diamonds were "crappy" and there was no warranty or anything with it... so he had the set custom made, based on that design! He also made sure there the middle diamond was a Canadian diamond... something I wanted but didn't think I'd ever get! For my penny-pincher boyfriend, he's turned out to be a quality-over-price fiance

I think we're 80% sure of the venue we want. But we don't know what dates are available next year, if any, and we'll have to base things off that.

This really is the happiest time of my life, but at the same time there's little tugs of sadness... my brother has not congratulated us, or even acknowledged it at all. My mom even told him I was a little upset that he hasn't said anything, but he had nothing to say to her about it.

On top of that, Scott's best friends have also not said anything. He told his best friend immediately, a few days before we announced it on Facebook, and never got a reply. His friend had obviously gotten the message, but he chose not to reply. In fact, none of his guy friends have said anything, not even a simple "like" on facebook! These are the guys he has always wanted in his wedding party, but it seems like they're taking a stand against it Last night when we got home, he called one of his other good friends and he congratulated him, so I think he's moved up in position! We're going to a barbeque with them all tomorrow and I guess we'll just see if anyone says anything about it. I guess you find out who really cares at times like this.
