Most of the friends we have met through ProgPower have been told in one capacity or another (texting, calling, e-mailing, etc.), but for those of you that we are friends with that we haven't had a chance to notify yet, I am please to now be able to shout it from the rooftops:
NICK AND I ARE ENGAGED!!!
After nearly 6 years of being together (as of this coming July), Nick proposed to me a week ago Friday at the Doro show at JAXX. He admitted that he wanted to do it during the show when they played Fur Immer. Unfortunately that was one of the few songs that they typically play that they didn't this time, so he simply waited until after the show was over and then asked me right there on the floor in front of the stage at JAXX. Stage right at Jaxx will never be the same.
Anyway, just wanted to share the awesome news! I've been super excited over the past week, starting to plan our "heavy metal wedding" and reception. No official date yet, but we are thinking along the lines of sometime in the fall of 2009. Nick says we have to wait till Glenn sets the date for PPX before we can set our date for the wedding.
Go figure! Haha! But I wouldn't have it any other way.
Oh yeah, and just so you know it's really official ... here's a shot of the goods ...
The pictures didn't seem to turn out that great, but it's a white gold setting, with a square cut stone in the center and three small round diamonds on either side. It's simple, but elegant - just my style of jewelry - not to mention, I haven't really seen anything else like it anywhere, so that fact that it's kind of unique is really cool too.
I just can't express in words how excited Nick and I both are.
