It's coming together!

The final "big" piece of the puzzle has been found - we have an officiant!

It was a worry that we were coming on 3 months (today, actually) until the big day and we didn't have someone official do ask us "Do you take this... to be you lawfully wedded..." but thanks to my mom's memory, we now can get married legally!

Now it's just time for the "crafty craft" stuff, which thankfully coincides with my 2-week holiday vacay. You know -- favors, programs, thank you cards and the like!

We get our marriage license on December 30th.

Congratulations Kristin and Ben!

Congratulations to Brent's sister, Kristin, on her engagement to Ben! They met online too a few months before Brent and I did.

You should see her ring -- it's gorg!

Welcome Ben -- we can now be the "outlaw" club of the Hoffman fam!
