I just realized that I never posted the news here. I don't think that's a problem; I'm not aware of any readers who aren't also Facebook friends or on my email list, but just in case... yes, Scott and I are getting married. =) We're hoping for February 22nd, although right now that is in the hands of the First Presidency. They've changed the procedure somewhat: you can't even reserve the room anymore until you have the sealing cancellation letter in your possession. Fortunately, the process also takes a lot less time than it used to. So although I'm not particularly worried about having the letter by the 22nd, I am a bit concerned that it might not come in time to get a slot reserved. Especially since that is the week after the temple reopens, so there might be more demand than usual. It's hard to say, though--maybe being sandwiched between Valentine's Day and spring break with work in our favor. Anyway ... it's just a waiting game now, so I'm trying not to think about it too much. It will work or it won't. =)
Since we're getting married in the Salt Lake temple, we decided to do our engagement pictures at Temple Square, but focusing on the parts of it that aren't immediately recognizable. We'll save those for the wedding pictures. =)
Here are some of my favorites ...
Happy, happy happy Lisa =)
Oh, and just for the record: I'm still the crazy anti-woman who can't stand the thought of wearing expensive jewelry. That lovely ring I'm wearing is composed of CZs and cost less than $250. Which makes it exponentially more lovely in my eyes!
