Hamari Saigai

Posted on October 12th, 2005 by Poonam

We have come back with some good news to share. :smile: Neeraj and my engagement date has been set. :grin: :hyper: :grin: We will be celebrating our engagement with our friends and family on November 26, 2005.

We will be finalizing the venue and the dinner menu in the next few days and then will begin to send out the invitations. :smile:

Its an exciting time for us as we slowly begin our journey towards wedded bliss. :smile: US Bloggers begin looking for an e-invite coming to an inbox near you (which would be your email address :grin: ). We would love to have all of you celebrate this wonderful day with us.

India Bloggers don’t be discouraged as you will get your chance too. Our wedding will definitely be in Jaipur, India so we are getting the best of both worlds. :grin:

Planning for the party has begun and there is much much to do. :yes:

Other Side Thoughts:

Finally got my laptop back last night (my hard drive was completely dead and didn’t have it for the past four-five days). So now we will be back online more often than ever. :smile:

A HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS goes to our very own Kunal saab!! :hyper: He is officially engaged to a Verma!!! :hyper: As of yet there is no relation to Neeraj, but who knows! :wink: Our bhabhi-to-be is Bharti Verma from Delhi. Manpreete and Ankur thodi chaan-bheen karo ke hamari hone wali bhabhi kaisi hai — tumhari galee se aayi hai. :grin: We got the news yesterday when Kunal asked us to give him a call. At that moment I told Neeraj that “lagta hai baat pakki ho gayi hai.” :smile:

Neeraj and I are very very very happy for you both and may God keep you happy always.

Mata Rani ki duayein hum sab par hai. :smile:

Alvida. Jai Mata Di.
