Happy news in our family this Christmas season: our daughter is engaged!
We are rejoicing together, and so thankful for the man who is to be our son-in-law.
And you better believe I will be blogging about plans for the upcoming wedding in 2016. And the search for the perfect dress (including mine!). And all the other fun and happy festivities that surround the joining of two hearts.

Of course, there are other glad tidings right now. Whether the news in our life is happy or sad, whether we are rejoicing or grieving, whether good times or bad, the news that Christ came into our world, broke through the darkness and gave us hope, will always be true.
Have a very Merry Christmas, dear friends. I'll be visiting in between the cooking and feasting, gift-giving and thanks-giving.
Greetings, What wonderful news! It really is the most wonderful time of the year! Merry Christmas to you and yours! Blessings in the New Year...

ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! What a fun time for all of you!! Have they set a date yet?
ReplyDeleteI just walked this path a few months ago. My daughter got married a bit over 2 months ago---on October 10th. They had gotten engaged the end of May, so we had a little over 4 months to plan. Everything came together beautifully, just as I'm sure it will for you.
Merry Christmas!
Love,
Patti
Congratulations!

ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful news, Deborah.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your daughter, and to you and your husband. It is such a wonderful time for you as a mother during those days of preparation for the wedding day, oh you will love it!
Reading this brings back beautiful memories as a mother myself, having two daughters.
I just know you will find the "right" dress.
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones.
Congratulations to all, especially your daughter and her beloved. You have an exciting time ahead and I am looking forward to seeing all the plans and preparations you share come to fruition.
ReplyDeleteOf course it's the wonderful news that matters, not the ring. However, I have to say that the ring is really beautiful :)
ReplyDeletePS Love the gift bags. :)
ReplyDeleteI know I'm late but I found this lovely, happy and special post about your sweet daughter's engagement.
ReplyDeleteFirst, what a gorgeous ring. You will be very busy getting ready for her wedding, what fun time that is!
I am very happy for your DD and groom, of course, for the entire family.
Thanks for sharing your joy with us lovely lady.
