I wanted to take a page out of jstumps page and introduce myself as well! I'm also and engaged and was wanting a way to introduce myself on this board because it does seem to be more lively over here. From my lurking I've felt like I've gotten a feel on some of ya but I just wanted to get myself out there. I figured this would be the best way!. Again thanks for the inspiration jstumps!
