Saturday night, our very good friends Mike and Carrie held our First Orlando (third actual) Engagement Party.
First of all, let me thank them SO much. You both mean a lot to us and are the best of friends. Thank you for caring for us and being there for us. I hope you like your gnome.
Darin and I had a great time. I can't even begin to describe how exciting it was to have a party for us! Our previous parties were really to introduce Darin to my incredible/large/loud/fun-loving family... this one was for us.
And it was a wonderful night.
Carrie had the best food. She got the sha cha chicken recipe from China in Epcot and had a chocolate fountain. With pretzels. And marshmallows. It was beyond good. And hummus. I forgot all about the hummus. We love hummus.
We all ate and drank. Talked.
Laughed. Told stories.
Ate some more. (The Chicken.)
Meet new people. (Well, Darin and I didn't, but a lot of others did...)
Opened presents. How great was this?!
And almost cried.
* Carrie had everyone send her recipes for a cookbook she put together for us. I knew if I would have read it right there I would have cried... so I waited until I got home that night. It was so very special. Thank you!
Thanks again to everyone who came and those of you who couldn't.
We had a wonderful night.
