Kind of got some big news. Sort of a life-changing day this past Thursday.
It started out like any other day. I went to work. I worked. I drove home from work. Jess was making her "pshghetti", which is awesome by the way (she used ground italian sausage).
And we were standing in the kitchen looking at Willie and tasting the sauce when she drops the bomb on me.
"I think I may be pregnant"
like whoa.
smiling cause I had an idea this could happen, I says, "wow. I'm going to be dad? that's going to be expensive...". My humor does not recognize proper timing.
So she took a few (4) more home pregnancy tests just to confirm. All came back "pregnant".
Before I knew we were pregnant I was going to save some money and pop the question around Thanksgiving or Christmas. This little incident sped things up a bit. So we got engaged now and we are getting hitched at my grandparents' place in Creede, Colorado over Labor Day weekend. Should be really nice if the weather is good.
I can't believe it's really happening but I'm excited. To think, I'm going to be a daddy and a husband. Holy crap, I'm getting old.
We got our rings yesterday and my Uncle Quincy has agreed to perform the ceremony, so that will be awesome.
Here are our rings. Her's is a 2 carat combination engagement and wedding band with 3 diamonds in the middle representing past, present, and future and a "cascade" of smaller ones extending to midway around the band. Mine is grey.
