In case you haven't heard!

I have copied and pasted this quote a million times and yet every time I read it my heart smiles and I am reminded of the fact that I am lucky to have found someone who I am ready to share the rest of my life with...
“Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is.
Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two.Louis de BernièresCorelli's Mandolin
If you don't follow me on my social media accounts then you probably don't know that We're Officially ENGAGED!!! Yes, officially. :D It's a long story and maybe we'll wait til the wedding to tell people about our journey to here or maybe well just keep it to ourselves but the important thing to take away from this is the fact that WE'RE GETTING MARRIED! 


I am overwhelmed with the response we got when we announced our engagement. :D It made the engagement even more special. :D Thank you to everyone who liked, commented, SMSed, messaged, tweeted and shared with us the happiness and excitement the next few months will bring leading up to the big day! That's right folks, after all the teasing and nudging it's really happening.

By this time I can already picture our friends as they sigh and say "finally" and I must admit that it's been a long time coming. But I am a firm believer that everything happens at the right time and we can't rush God's timing. All in His time. And right now feels perfect for us. 

I'm so full of energy right now and there's so many things I still have to do. I can finally start calling everyone, rally the troops as they say. It's crunch time! :D So I'm off, to plan and panic and plan some more.

Weeeee...We're getting married!!!
