Can I sit with you guys?

BunsBooksBaking · June 2012

HI!

I'm an oldly-wed wife who hung out on my local board while I was planning my wedding, and was a regular on The Nest for years after. We didn't have a Christian Weddings board back then, and there isn't a "Christian Families" board or anything on TN. But, I've been lurking a few days, and you guys seem really fun and sweet. Would you mind terribly having an old married hag around?

Huz and I have been together for almost 12 years and we've been married almost 4 years (7/4/08). We have no kids, but we have 2 amazing nephews and 5 Godkids that we adore, and two spoiled pet Bunnies. We live in NorCal where he's a police officer and I'm a student. We are saving for a house and hope to buy in the next couple of years.

We had a 4th of July wedding in a beautiful garden in the middle of a theme park. Our guests got to go on rides and have fun, and then come back and enjoy barbecue and dancing. I really loved it, and love being with my best friend every day since then

Um, I guess if I missed anything else, feel free to ask me! I look forward to getting to know everyone, and seeing the beautiful weddings you plan!

Welcome. You can definitely chat with us. One of us has been married something like 10 years. People here are very nice compared to the other boards. We're like a group of friends always willing to get to know new people.

Congratulations DramaGeek! That is amazing and very inspiring! I wish you a hundred more happy years together!

And congrats fpaemp2001 on your pregnancy! That's really exciting!

Ravenray, I'm in San Jose. How about you?

Welcome! I would just like to say that I love how you titled this post as "Can I sit with you guys?"... it makes me think of all of us sitting around on big comfy sofas with some lovely cups of tea and a chatting about our lives

GJones27 · June 2012

Hey there! I'm also from the Bay Area. I actually grew up in SF (the city itself) but now I live in Boston for law school. I have family in San Jose, and my sis lives in Mountain View. Ravenray just got married in SF. My wedding a year ago was in SF/Sausalito.

Gjones is right I got married in San Fran. I don't live there right now (I am in Germany for the summer) but when I come back I will be in Sacramento/Davis area. :)

Do you love the Sharks even though they suck?

Ravenray, where in Germany will you be? I lived in Germany/Austria eight months. I met my husband at Tubingen outside of Stuttgart. I also lived in Trier and Vienna.

jenningz · June 2012

HELLO, welcome

BMcLeodTeam · June 2012

Welcome to the group! The ladies on here are so nice

LeahVB2011 · June 2012

Welcome! This is a great group. I took a year break from TK and came back and I don't feel like I ever left!

Ha! That is so sweet! I am convinced that if you ever come back to CA we would be really good RL friends :)
I am also living outside of Stuttgart in a tiny town called <span style="font-size:11pt;line-height:115%;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';">Möckmühl<span>. Which is near Heilbronn. I know where Tubingen is! :) What were you doing there? Sprechen Sie deutsch?

2012FutureMrsB · June 2012

Welcome! I just got married 2 weeks ago, but still post here. TN is ok, but TK is a lot more fun

And I agree with PP's, this group has lots of nice ladies!

GJones27 · June 2012

Ravenray, we would TOTALLY (yes, NorCal lingo) be RL friends. I'm sad our trips to SF have never overlapped. What are you doing in Deutschland this summer? Ja, ich hab' Deutsch gelernt, aber leider hab' ich viel vergessen. I studied abroad in Tuebingen for a semester in college, and my husband and I met at international orientation. It is soooo beautiful there in the summer. If you can make it there, I highly recommend it. Lots of Germans like to travel there... it's a lot like Heidelberg and very romantic. Don't know of Heilbronn, but I didn't get to travel much (I've only been to Berlin, some parts of the Rheinland, some parts of Bavaria, and the Black Forest)
