WOW!  Very exciting news - and lots of it, too!

Congrats, Brendalu.

And thanks for sharing.  Some day we all need a pick me up - and the good news doesn't necessarily need to be ours.

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Wow!  News that good is certainly something you want to shout from the rooftops!  I am so-o-o-o-o-o happy for you. ;D  My daughter is getting married in May, and like you, I couldn't have picked anyone better for her.  We love him already.  Can't wait for grandkids to come!

If I said thank you a millions times I don't think I could ever thank each and every one of you enough!!  I have been busy putting flowers together and finishing touches on all the stuff today.
The weather is not cooperating here on the Gulf Coast of Texas and I see we have a full moon for tomorrow evening...............sounds like just what the doctor ordered. lol.

Captain Deb....I think everyone needs to get their magnifying glasses out to check out all of the fine print on anything insurance related.  These are some strange times we are experiencing.

Anne Marie...I may have to get my Wonder Woman cape out for the rest of this week and then it is going to be retired for good...and now I can't get that music out of my head!! Maybe I'll hum it instead of the Wedding March........don't think my daughter would appreciate that at all but it might be funny!

I will try to post some pictures....if I can be photo shopped to look like Deborah Carr or Ann Margaret!!

Everyone have a wonderful weekend.
Thank you again
Huggggggssssssssssssssssssssssssss,
Brenda

Brenda,
So glad you shared all the good news! And I hope the wedding went really well in spite of the weather (which didn't seem to be ideal in a lot of places around the country!)
Congrats on your grandbaby too!
