Save the date!

Tiffany and I spent last weekend down in Virginia searching for the perfect venue to host our wedding ceremony and reception. By the end, we picked a place, date, and Tiffany even bought her wedding dress. She'll have to describe it to you since I wasn't afforded the opportunity to see it yet.
Our ceremony and reception will be held on Saturday, December 13th at the Ford's Colony Country Club in Williamsburg, VA. They have a large banquet room to hold the wedding with a covered pavilion to hold the reception. All I have left to do is order my coffee ice cream with Reese's Peanut Butter Cup cake(s). jk, not about the cake, but that there is still much more to be done. Like order the pizzas!

Engaged!

On April 11th, at sunset, on the cliffs of La Jolla Cove, I asked Tiffany Lynn Harvey to marry me! Better yet, she said YES! We had dinner at George's on the Cove. We had a great table in the corner over looking the cove and the ocean and enjoyed some great seafood. At one point during the dinner, Tiffany mentioned that she needed some dental floss. I told her that I had some in the car (this little fact will become important later). After finishing dinner earlier than expected, I stalled by asking Tiffany if she wanted to look in some shops. We checked out a few stores and also grabbed coffee and desert at a nearby cafe. We then strolled along the cliff's sidewalks and checked out the seals. At just about sunset, we reached a little patch of grass up on a bluff that had a great view of the breaking waves and rocks below. I babbled for a little bit about how great Tiffany is and how we will spend the rest of our lives together. Tiffany started to get some thoughts in her head of where this conversation was going. I then mentioned to her that I forgot that I had the floss in my pocket the whole time. Once I pulled out the floss, her thoughts changed gears. That is until I cracked open the floss case and pulled out the ring! It was random that she asked for it during dinner and I had only decided to put it in there a few hours before as I was walking around the hotel room looking for a smaller case than the one it came in so that it didn't look obvious in my pocket. Needless to say, she was very surprised and very happy. We'll be sure to keep you posted as we look to set a date and do all of that other marriage preparation type stuff. Thanks to Anastasia and Chris for letting us spend some time with them and Maddie this weekend. We had a great time.

Me and Cooper

Thought you guys would want some more pictures of me and Cooper. He likes to chew on things and he gets kinda crazy when he knows I am around and he can't come get me. I am taking him to Petsmart training class tomorrow morning. Here's the pictures
