A big helping of happiness


Today's feature on The Chocolate Bunny is called: "Why Valerie has had a smile plastered to her face these past few days." And here it is:


*grin*
Laurent actually asked me to marry him almost two weeks ago, but I was waiting to tell my best friend in person before spreading the news on the net. I was finally able to see her yesterday, so... there you have it.

I am deliriously happy, and very excited about everything that is to come. There wasn't a doubt in my mind when I said "yes" to his proposal, and I'm absolutely certain I won't have any trouble saying "yes" at the church. I'd say "yes" tomorrow without any qualms. But we've agreed to have a real wedding (although that's pretty much the only thing that's been settled - details are still up in the air), so I get to enjoy being engaged for several months, while we sort everything out.

I do know one thing, though: I will not be making my own wedding cake. Not that I don't enjoy a challenge, but I think I'll have other things to worry about by then.

  6. Congratulations! Fantastic news. Good plan not to make your own wedding cake too. I found it quite stressful to make someone else's!

  7. Ooooo congratulations for the both of you!! What fabulous news!!! And well, if you need a weddingphotographer, I am your girl... :) It's just unfortunate you live so far away...! I've been doing weddings all summer and it's always fun and for some reason I had a lot of people I already knew getting married. Double fun.
    I love your ring!
