our new adventure!

David and I just got engaged on June 30, 2010... 2 days before my birthday! We went for a run on Jemison Trail in Mountain Brook, Alabama and right after crossing over a small rocky creek, he stopped me and proposed!

What a beaut!

We'll be posting plans, ideas and other adventures in wedding preparation as we make our way to saying "I do."

Yay for your own wedding inspired blog. I'm not a big fan of The Knot...this is way better. Congrats again.

About Dave and Al

Dave and Al met in Montgomery, Alabama at a mutual friend's home. Dave was visiting town for the weekend and Al was living there at the time running her own embroidery business. There was an instant connection as Dave charmed Al with his natural good humor and Al enchanted Dave with her nice smile, sassy attitude and retro hat. Dave decided to come back to town the following weekend to take Al to dinner, and they were like two peas in a pod.

Lots of time passed, and their relationship grew stronger. Al moved to Birmingham and made a career change. Then soon after, David made a career change.

Then more time passed...

Then even more time..........

And then just a little more....

Five years, five months, and two days... David finally proposed during one of Al and Dave's runs. Completely shocked and starting to hold on to the notion of eternal dating, Al enthusiastically accepted. Now on to wedding planning for a fantastic life together filled with laughs, smiles, sassiness and retro hats!
