    Congratulations! I’m so happy for you. (And to think, when I first started reading you, I was concerned you might not be getting out enough . . . )

    Will you be announcing the date? Will someone be live-blogging the event? 😉

  19. Jenn (fiance` of Backcountry Conservative) says:

    Now the real fun begins!

    So she has gone from adjutant to XO, and now all that’s left is the Change of Command ceremony. Congratulations, you poor bastard.

  21. denise says:

    Hey, that’s great! Congratulations. My husband and I have been married three years now, and the best advice I can give is to just enjoy each other. Little things can make you miserable, but only if you let them.

    And whatever you decide about a wedding/reception/honeymoon, just have fun with that too and don’t let other people stress you out. (Some people really want the bride and groom ultra-nervous for some reason.)

  22. Jim Durbin says:

    Congratulations – welcome to the club!

  23. Dodd says:

    Another one bites the dust! 🙂

    Seriously, heartiest congratulations to you both!

  24. jen says:
