We’re Getting Married!
For those who haven’t heard, Dave and I recently became engaged!! Hooray!! He popped the question last week on October 8th – my birthday. Dave came over and made a dynamite birthday dinner and then asked if I wanted my present. I said sure and he said close your eyes…..I pulled my hand away from my face and there he was, down on one knee. There was only one answer for this wonderful question, Yes! Of course! We were both all smiles for the rest of the night and decided to celebrate with a mini-trip to one of our favorite southern spots, New Orleans!
What better place to celebrate than the best Jazz Club on Bourbon Street! Fritzel’s European Jazz Club is definitely our favorite – we are never disappointed, especially not this weekend! Take a listen:
And a second take:
After we left Richard Scott and the Boys at Fritzel’s we found some folks having good times of their own on Bourbon Street!
The next day we had a great Cajun Breakfast and enjoyed some coffee at a local coffee house. We don’t have a date yet, we’re having too much fun enjoying our new engagement and thinking about the excitement ahead!
And, I’m usually not a big fan of posting bling on the web, but seeing as how we’re so far away and so many people wanted emailed pics…. here’s what you’ve been waiting for – The Rock!
We’re really excited and can’t wait to be married! Thank you to everyone’s words of encouragement and congrats! We can’t wait to see you all at the wedding!!

I am so happy for the both of you. What a wonderful addition to have Lydia join our family! Of course, Christian is very happy. He said ‘My Lydia???’, I said ‘no, David’s Lydia.’ He repeated, ‘no, my Lydia.’
Great news, nice rock. David did well!
Love, Lori
