Taking the plunge again

Shaun · 12-19-2005, 10:22 AM

Well thought I would inform you all that my girlfriend for the past year is now my fiance. Right now we are looking at Vegas for the weekend of May 20th. Now I hope the job front changes soon so I can get back to work.

Stopper · 12-19-2005, 10:35 AM

Congrats!!! - I think LOL!!!!!!

Oxford · 12-19-2005, 11:22 AM

Congratulations, for sure, Shaun!:right:

Now tell us a little about her. And...does she share your interests?

jerry · 12-19-2005, 11:29 AM

Congratulations.
I allways told my self I'd not do it again if the first time didn't work out. I guess it's one of those things you need to decide when it happens.

Best Wishes to you and your future wife.

Now get to work you bum!

Shaun, good stuff. Say hi to Ruth for me. It is Ruth, isn't it, or is my memory that bad? If not, I apologize for getting her name wrong. She seemed to be a fine young lady...and fairly easy on the eyes. Congratulations, amigo.

Shaun · 12-19-2005, 11:53 AM

Yes Troy its Ruth and I will tell her -- she is a shooter now I introduced her too it and she wants to shoot everything I have the first day out she was demanding more power - so far she is loving the autoloader rifles but she lreally likes the M48 Mauser I got her for her birthday. We have also talked about her doing the CCW course and I am going to start working with her with the Bersa 380.

She has been very supportive with the flying and if we can get her past the motion sickness it will be a lot better. But she has been a good photographer and she is constantly asking me when my next hunting trip is she likes the idea of me having the hunting for myself.

The best of it is that she has become great friends with my ex and that is wonderful since I spend so much time with Morgan hunting.

Chris · 12-19-2005, 12:02 PM

Congrats my man.

Should we all show up for that weekend in Vegas

Shaun · 12-19-2005, 12:07 PM

Chris its up to you guys we are just planning a small wedding , dinner and then going to donate some funds to the economy I have been teasing her that I am going to run off to a range 30 minutes after with Morgan

BattleRifleG3 · 12-19-2005, 01:43 PM

Wow, her gun tastes sound just like Wolfuntress's! Got her an M48 as well for our 3 month anniversary, and have been looking at a Bersa 380 for CCW. If I were a rich man, she'd have milsurps, semi-autos, and target rifles galore, but alas I too am in need of work, essentially starting a career amid what appears to be a whole industry of BS about engineering jobs with many talking heads and no one who bothers to read resumes or even answer the phones.

Troy · 12-19-2005, 04:09 PM

well dam Shaun, good for you and congrats to you both.

12-19-2005, 04:17 PM

Congrats and Good Luck ! :right:

Marraige is a fine institution!
Are you ready for an institution?

Congrats.

A man is not complete untill he is married... then he is finished. j/k I hope its a wondeful life the two of you will share.

Shaun · 12-19-2005, 09:05 PM

Thanks again guys -- five years of single life was enough for me. The funny part is that I keep joking with her and telling her for a guy the wedding is a funeral

you know I heard those very words when I did it the first time and this time definitely looks like I can finally get kids out of the deal and yes I am going to need a new hunting buddy in about 15 years. Plus she has agreed that for every $ she spends on shoes she will deposit an equal amount in my hunting/toy fund
