Official Engagement Announcement

Finally.....It Hit The Paper! This past Sunday, Father's Day, our official engagement announcement hit the paper. My mom always hits the town early on Sunday mornings to buy all of her goodies, and I was so excited when she walked in and handed me the Rome News Tribune. Anytime, I am home, I always look in the paper on Sunday mornings to read the engagement announcements and to see the brides who have just recently been married. Sunday was my turn!! It was even more exciting because my mom had chosen the picture and I hadn't seen it yet. As I opened the paper and saw "Wilson Williams Engagement" a huge smile came upon my face. I am preparing myself to marry the man of my dreams!! My fabulous fiance was still asleep, but I had to wake him up and share the Sunday morning paper with him! He said that he loved our announcement, but as soon as he woke up "for real", he asked to see it again!! LOL! So, it is official!! Let the festivities begin!! (Below is the actual announcement that hit the paper)
