I forgot to mention that we threw the happy couple a small, last minute engagement party. We thought this would give our family and friends a chance to meet Ashley. As it was last minute, there are tons of people we couldn’t invite, but we hope to catch you next time she comes out. It not then, then at the wedding.
Nick and Ashley are planning to job search this coming spring, so the wedding date will be set after finding jobs. This will let them know locating first. We’re hoping for a San Diego job, but so far schools that expressed an interest in Nick are in Iowa, IL, South Dakota, MN, WA, and WI. Yikes, can you get any colder than that? They will try to find Nick’s first and then Ashley’s job, so that at least they’ll have housing. But you never know, this could get reversed if Ashley is offered something wonderful. Needless to say, we’ll keep you all up the job search and wedding plans. We can’t wait to go to Macomb in May for graduation and to meet Ashley’s parents.
I hope to have the engagement party pictures posted within a few days.
