just when i already gave up on the thought of ever getting an engagement ring from joseph, he pops up one for me just before the pamamanhikan. i wasn't expecting it really. i was so thrilled when he initially handed me a bouquet of roses which he hid in the car's trunk, then rummaged through the glove compartment to hand me this tiny silver box which contained my beautiful engagement ring. it is not much of the ring but the thought that he took time to buy me one. so this is how it feels to be truly engaged... overwhelming!!!

joseph and his family came last 18 december 2004 for the pamamanhikan. it was nerve wracking alright! joseph brought along his parents, 2 brothers (Elmer and Eric), Elmer's wife (ate Nimfa) and their 2 kids (Jill and Ernest) and their Auntie Citas. there was some initial awkwardness but after my mom revealed that they were UP alumni, everything went well. joseph and i weren't really expecting for the meeting to turn out good. i think it's a good sign that the 2 families were able to relate well with one another.

we still haven't decided on a venue, videographer and photographer. i'm starting to panic a little bit because december is almost ending and i would have wanted to book ASAP to get a cheaper deal on the suppliers.
more pictures to come! we had some trial prenup pictorials during the w@w christmas party. i've uploaded already shine's shots of us during that day. we'll be getting mimi's this afternoon. i'm excited! i'll keep you guys posted.
