Life as an Engaged Couple

For only being engaged a week and a couple days, we've surprisingly accomplished quite a bit! Last Friday night, Thomas and I sat down to discuss wedding stuff. We set a date and compiled address lists for our invitees. On Saturday, we scheduled my endowment and our sealing with the Sacramento temple. Since then we've been chasing down missing addresses. We've also come up with a to-do list for ourselves.

On Saturday night we went to a BYU production of the musical "Children of Eden" thanks to a friend of my roommate who gave us some tickets. It's based on the first 9 chapters of Genesis. While not quite doctrinally correct, it did offer some new perspectives on a few things and was very entertaining. You can find more information about the play here.

On Sunday I had the pleasure of announcing our engagement in my ward. The first counselor in my bishopric gave me a big hug when I told him :o) I also got to tell the Relief Society during our meeting. Interestingly, a temple prep class began just last week so I get to go to that now instead of the regular Sunday School class.

My dad's apparently coming to Utah today to help fix my cousin's roof. It'll be fun to see him while he's here!
