My Last, First Valentines Day

I know i have been slacking in the last couple years as far as writing goes but it is once again Valentines day. this year is bittersweet but fortunately the sweet outweighs the bitter. the sweet part is that as of December 15th 2011 i am sporting a sizable rock on my left ring finger. yes that's right, im engaged. i was surprised to look over my blog and realize that i had not made a single comment about my new found love and i haven't posted since before we started dating. i guess the reason for that is that i've been too busy dating him to comment on dating him. i met Alex a year and a half ago on match.com but we didnt officially start dating until last May. the bitter part of this Valentines is that he is in Colorado and i am in Arizona. long distance relationships are a lot of work. i think it has been really good for us but i am ready to be done. engagement is not as fun when you are a thousand miles apart lol but still i am enjoying wedding planning and i have only thought about writing out my name as Mrs. Alex Hebert with hearts on a spiral bound notebook a couple of times (i have not actually done it). though i have always loved Valentines day this one is special. it will be forever ever marked as my last, first Valentines day. the first of many Valentines to come with the man i love. i can't decide if i am going to continue this blog or close it out. i think ill continue it till my wedding day and then close this chapter of my life as i move on to bigger and better things. thats all for now and Happy Valentines Day :-)
