My you've been busy! Didn't you say the wonderful Mr. B was working on the guts for the web site? I can't wait to see. If you've reserved the hall, does that mean we have a firm date?

Hey I have another recommendation. The best advice that I got while engaged was to spend more time planning your marriage than your wedding. A married couple friend of ours recommended a book called Promises to Keep: Developing the Skills of Marriage by Kathleen R. Fischer and Thomas N. Hart. They described it like this...

Each person has all sorts of past history in life that makes a mine field. Going through this book is like taking steps into the mine field with a stick looking for mines. *tink*, *tink*. Whoa! We found one. Okay, let's take it over there and de-fuse it safely.

Anyway, Scot and I got a lot out of it. For people who didn't think we had "issues" it turns out we sure had a lot to talk about!

Let's see if I can find your address, and I'll send you a copy as an engagement gift.
