That planet Earth turns slowly..."
-Owl City 'Fireflies'But it's already October!! And tomorrow, Brian's Mom and stepdad, Tom, are hosting an engagement party for us! We, once again, are so excited! This will be the first time our extended families will meet, and we are definitely looking forward to it. We know everyone will get along really well, and we truly will be one big, happy family. We've got quite a few people coming in from out of town, and more than anything are just so lucky to have so many loved ones here to celebrate with us. That is what's most important.
I do have to admit, while it's only been one month since I last saw my Mom, Scott, Amy, James, and my grandparents, I am really looking forward to seeing them. Sometimes it feels a bit lonely in Ohio with my family so far away, but knowing that Brian's family is here makes it that much better. Still, it will be so nice to see them.
On top of it all, the Ohio State Buckeyes play the Indiana University Hoosiers on Saturday night, and we've got quite the set up to make sure we are all able to watch the nuts versus the natives. (As we all know, or should know, a buckeye is a nut. If that's not intimidating, I don't know what is. And according to Wikipedia, a 'hoosier' is a resident of Indiana. That's ... creative, Indiana.)
Anyway, so we are all set for lots of laughing, drinking, and having ourselves a jolly good time on Saturday night. I'm sure we will have some good pictures to post when all is said and done!
Go Bucks!
Erin, I had a great time at the party. Your family is absolutely lovey. I enjoyed talking to all of them. Really nice people. You and Brian make a great couple.
