My Uncle is FINALLY engaged!!!!!!

First off, I want to tell everyone Happy (belated) Valentine's Day! My Valentine's Day was just like any other.....spent single, and I didn't get a dang thing, unless I would have bought myself something, but, to be totally honest, I didn't feel like it. LOL. Well, anyway, let's get to the explanation of this blog's title. My uncle is FINALLY engaged!!! WOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! LOL.

Her name is Gerri. She's a few years older than my Uncle, whose name is David by the way. They've been dating for maybe a little over 2 years, and we've always teased him about getting married, but never really realized that it would actually ever happen, and I do mean ever happen. I myself, honestly thought that it would never happen, but it happened and all I can say is "YAAAAAAYYYY"!!!!!!!! There's no date set yet, and apparently my grandmother who lives with my uncle, said that she is not going to be living with them when they are engaged, but they aren't even going to be living together until they are married, which they don't have a date set yet, but she is planning to sell her home and move in with him. If this ring could be given a name, I would call it Simple Elegance. It is a .5 carat princess cut solitaire. My dream ring!!! AHH!!!! LOL. She was married before, and her two girls are very happy! So now I have two new cousins, Melissa and Stephanie. Well, now actually that makes two cousins named Stephanie, and then Melissa. Another aunt of mine on the same side of the family has a daughter named Stephanie. So, anyway, I'm so excited about this, I can barely type, and I have to keep backspacing. LOL. I told her that I am going to do the floral arrangements and then she told me that her hairdresser (we have the same one) told her that I was teaching myself floral design. My mother pretty much rolled her eyes when I said it, but I am going to really get my butt going on this, so I can make the most beautiful arrangements for this wedding. I am shaking so bad!! I need to breathe!!! lol. *breathing deep* lol. I just thought this day was never going to happen! I'm just wondering if I will be part of the wedding. Hmm? It would be the first wedding that I would actually ever be in instead of just at. I hate to make assumptions, but I am his niece and he is closest with his twin sister, which is my mother, and my sister is his goddaughter, but then again , I could be totally wrong, and they may end up just going away and getting hitched. Who knows? *Thinks and taps fingers on keyboard* What else is there to write about? Oh, my baby blanket is coming along fine. I decided to make it orchid purple and light yellow, and then maybe the boy one will be baby blue and green. Hmm?? Yeah, sounds like a plan to me. So, anywho, that's all there is to say really. Hahah!!! I am just in total shock! This is so cool! He never even said anything (to us kids) but of course, told mom, because of course she's apparently a really good secret keeper. LOL. There's no doubt about it though, she is. Okay, well I'm gonna go upstairs and make myself a milkshake and do some more baby blanket work, and hopefully, will post some pictures of my projects on Facebook tomorrow. :) Talk to you all later!!!
