I'm getting married in 24 days!!!  LT Obie will soon become LT Nammari...which will more than likely be shortened to LT Nam...which I can see turning into LT Dan (said in Tom Hank's Forrest Gump voice). 

I thought for quite awhile that marriage wasn't in the cards for me.  I never met a man who was as determined and kind as my father.  Then I met Mark, who from the very first conversation we had, showed me his easy going nature, loving heart, and quick wit.  He enjoys the simple things in life the most and calms me down when I become to worked up (Houston traffic can do that to any sane person).  Mark loves his old Ford pickup, his beat up cowboy boots, and a good beer.  He treats me with the utmost respect and greets me with a smile and hug every night upon returning from work.

I simply adore everything about him and am so excited for him to join my rather large yet warm, welcoming family.  I am relishing my last days as an Obermier before I embark on this new life with this wonderful man.  I couldn't ask to be any happier.
