It is with great excitement that I congratulate Alex and Aja on their engagement yesterday. It wasn't exactly a surprise as Al has been bouncing ideas off Tracy and I for the last few months but it is a happy day for them and for all of their friends and family. We can't wait to hear all the details and catch up with you guys in the Vineyard in a few months.

Because Al was the best man in my wedding I'm allowed to wonder how he tricked her into marrying him I really have no idea. Others might say it's about friggin time.

Congratulations you guys.

Two quick side notes, happy birthday to Officer Pacheco and Tracy and I are pretty darn close to purchasing a condo in the next day or so. Both sides have signed the contract and there is a very small chance that something could fall through so until everything is final final I'll hold off on all the details. Stay tuned.
