New Goal! + Engagement Photos

I have been completely awful about keeping up with my blog posts. Mostly because I've been bad about keeping up with wedding planning, however a few things have happened that I've neglected to share because I have been so, so busy.  But I decided that it's time to start writing and sharing regularly because if I don't make time, I'll never have time.  So my new goal is to post at least one entry a day for the next month (minus Fridays and Saturdays).  I'm wanting to do that for my regular blog, Unpaved Roads, as well.  However I want to take it a step further.  I want to make at least one decision (major or minor) every other day.  We have approximately 5 and a half months until we get married, so things need to get moving!

So for the latest updates.

On November 3, we made our final payment to Patten Chapel so it's officially ours. I'm so excited! On my way back to my car, I stopped by the chapel again.  It is so breathtaking.  I'm still blown away that we will be getting married there.  It's what I'd always imagined.

Just a couple of weeks ago, Emily Kay took engagement portraits for Desmond and me. They turned out GORGEOUS! Here are a few.

Just a few of the amazing pictures. :)

Also, we entered this contest to be models for tinyprints.com photo Christmas cards.  It's really not about being a model, it's all about the $1,000 prize if you win.  Basically, we submitted a photo and judges decide if we're a finalist.  If we are, on Dec. 2, people can vote for it.  So if we make it that far (and I seriously doubt we will), I will update with a link.
