    ha, when I read the title, I said "a dog and a husband" and I was right!

    congratulations on both, and what a great story about Snoopy! (albeit a bit said he had a bit of a rough go for a few months)

    What a neat story! Sounds like Snoopy was just meant to be yours.

    Love the pic of your proposal too. How perfectly romantic!

    Congratulations on both counts, and welcome back to TE!!

    Hi TriGirl... we originally planned for September 2011, but that is coming up fast, LOL!! Fiance is underemployed right now due to this sucky economy, so we want to wait until we get more settled financially between the two of us before we take the plunge so we can move from the condo to a house, etc, etc. Plus I am 48yo, he is 45yo... we aren't planning on anything huge, but I will be wearing a white hot beautiful wedding dress that is for sure! His 2nd marriage... he was married for a year many years ago... this will be my first and only wedding!!

    So more likely 2012. Don't want to wait that long, but in my heart, I think it's the right thing to do.

    but thanks for all your congrats. It's been a crazy 2yrs since I met him. He is darn handsome and a super guy. He is far from perfect, LOL!!... but he gets me emotionally and that has never happened in all my 48 years of life, LOL!! He is committed and I think that is way so cool. I never realized how cool it is to see someone committed to you to working things out, it's awesome.

    So thanks... we'll see about the wedding date... in the meantime, we take a day at a time and totally appreciate what we have today... with Snoopy

    That is an AWESOME story!

    I'm not a pet person myself, but Mrs. Bloom has two dogs, and a cat. She loves them...I'll only admit that sometimes, they're kinda cute

    FWIW, we had a beautiful wedding (second for both of us) in December for immediate family only and kept the cost to under $1,500 including location, minister, floral, cake, dinner, photographer, etc...

    What wonderful news Mr. B! Maybe we'll see more of you here on TE now that you've kind of settled in to your routine. Congratulations to you both and I wish you many years of happiness.

    Thanks sun! It's amazing what you find when you've not looking!

    Not wanting to steal Chicago's thunder...but here are our recent wedding pics. We're coming up on the first anniversary of our first date! Planned a summer wedding, but kids were too spread out...all over the world this summer!





    Sorry for the brief hijack!

    What a beautiful family and your wife is GORGEOUS! Maybe she can drop by TE and join our discussions? That is if she shares your cycling enthusiasm.
