6 weeks

Perry and I have been pretty organized with this 8 week engagement.

By week 1 we had the temple, reception, and family lunch scheduled. We even started looking at apartments for rent

Week 2 my sister Alyssa cut out the dress. We bought our second vehicle(I'll post pics soon). Perry got his suit when we went shopping with his parents two days ago! Today we went to lunch with both sets of parents, it was nice to have a happy mingling.

The picture above was my final fitting for the wedding dress. It's inside out, but you get the basic shape.

Perry and I are going to look two apartments this weekend. I started cutting hair in the salon, and he is going to be going to full time at his job next week. Needless to say..we are busy! But we will pull it off!

I hope :)

To make a long story short

In the the year 2006 Perry and Mindy played in a talent show together. Perry in his band, Mindy with her guitar.

Perry had never recorded a girl before, so he asked if she would let him record her song.

That summer Mindy needed to find a date to go to the movies. Perry was the lucky number one that answered. When he tried to "rain check", she said no.

They started dating until he left to Kenya in 2007.

Before the mission:

Perry got back two years later.

2010 started off a new year and a new Perindy adventure.

He proposed on July 15:

Most people's reaction to the engagement was "its about time"
