My cousin's band Kiddo is releasing their album exclusively through iTunes. It is called Okay Sweetheart.

I think this link should take you to iTunes directly. (but I can't check it from work)

I downloaded it last night. It rocks!

This is a picture of me at a beautiful restaurant in the Graubunden area of Switzerland. My pictures are still on the camera - yes I decided to take the film camera.

One of my travelmates took the picture, and you can see more of his professional pictures here:

The waitress snapped a quick pic of us after he proposed.

I have been in Switzerland the last week or so and haven't been able to post anything. I hope to get some pictures developed and share them.

Engaged!


The ring

Mike proposed on my birthday!

There were many more surprises in store for me after the flowers at work.
- He made me breakfast in bed, with heart-shaped pancakes (forgot to take a picture)
- Our mystery destination was a private cabin in Hocking Hills, a state park in Ohio
- He planned a cookout and remembered everything. It started raining in the middle and we found shelter under a pine tree. It was fun!
- He surprised me with a professional massage, foot rub, and facial mask
- And during dinner at the Grouse Nest, he proposed!

It was wonderful. And I love the ring. We are tentatively planning an Oct 2007 wedding. So I am in seventh heaven reading Martha Stewart Weddings and being able to do it openly!

Look what my lovin' boyfriend sent me at work today!

He's calling it Birthday Surprise Number One. Tomorrow is my 29th birthday and we are taking tomorrow and Friday off. He is taking me to a mystery location.

I can't wait to find out where we're going and what other surprises are in store for me. What a lucky gal!
