Hello everyone!  Wow, I can't believe it's been 2 million years since I have written on this thing...or typed rather.  So...here's the rundown of events...

I'm not in school this quarter b/c basically b/w watching Sarah and workin' at Max I'm working 65 hours a week.  So, Monday mornin' starting at 7 until Friday evening at 5 I'm a busy gal.  But then, the weekend arrives and the fun begins!  I don't have to work weekends which is a complete blessing.  So, weekends have been great for getting the wedding stuff done.  Only 109 days to go by the way!  Last weekend Ang and my parent's met!  It went amazing.  I knew it would, they are TOTALLY alike!  His parents also got to see the church and hall.  So, now that they are in the loop, I feel great!  It was a good bonding weekend with Ang's family!  My dress should be here any day now, and of course I'm looking forward to that.  May 12th I move into my very own apt which is going to be nothing but amazing. 

This weekend I have Jonelle's shower, and that's going to be G-R-E-A-T!  I am really looking forward to that!  I love that the two of us are going through this big step in our lives at the same time.  It's really brought us closer together, and well...I couldn't be happier for her and Tony!  They are a beautiful couple.  Next weekend is Easter, so I will be home for a total of 5 weekends in a row...crazy huh!  I love it though...minus all the driving!  Ang and I are also doing our engagemnt pics on Easter, so that'll be fun! 

So some super fun events are on their way, and life is wonderful.  Things just keep on gettin' more amazing!  I am a happy camper.  Well...I gotta go play with Boogs for awhile...catch ya'll on another day!

Tara, this is a brand new entry just for you!!!

Since I haven't updated this thing in over 2 million years, I hardly doubt that I'll be able to catch you up on everything...in fact, I'm not even going to try!  However, if there's any details that you would like to have about my life, just ask...But to answer most of your questions about what's goin on, there's only two words to answer the question...WEDDING STUFF!!!  Oh yes, I have been planning the weeks away!  Everything is coming together amazingly!  I shouldn't be surprised b/c I already know that this is God's Will, so why wouldn't everything be going amazing?!?  All the major things have been checked off the to-do list, and all that's really left are the small, yet super important details.  There are only 193 days left until the big day!  AHHH!!!!  Yah, I REALLY can't wait.  I just have 8 weeks left of classes, plus a week of finals, and then I get to plan plan plan plan plan!  That's when things will be EXTREMELY exciting.  Gift registries, furniture shopping, apartment renting!  This is going to be a great year!  I have been blessed way beyond my imagination.  Thank you God for being so totally incredible.  OK, well...I gotta do some laundry and hit the shower before Booga Bear wakes up.  Later ya'll!

So Christmas was completely awesome.  On the 18th Ang and I went up to my family's for our big Christmas celebration.  I had just had my wisdom teeth taken out, so I was a bit under the weather.  Despite that, it was a pretty swell time.  We spent this past weekend at Ang's parents which was a ton of fun.  We pretty much just relaxed and enjoyed our time off of work.  It was great.  I got to know his family a lot better which is exciting since they'll soon be my family.  Tonight Me, Ang, Ang's brother Ryan, his girlfriend Jamie and Ang's cousin Josh went to see the Christmas lights at the zoo.  It was a nice evening outside and the lights were gorgeous.  Besides fighting the crowds to see the animals, it was a pretty good time. 

WEDDING PLANS ARE COMING ALONG QUITE NICELY.  MY DRESS HAS BEEN BOUGHT.  THE BRIDESMAIDS DRESSES HAVE BEEN BOUGHT.  THE CENTERPIECES ARE AT LEAST SET IN OUR MINDS, NAD WE HAVE PICKED OUR COLORS.  PINK AND BLACK!  WHICH IS WHY THIS ENTRY IS IN NONE OTHER THAN...PINK AND BLACK!  IT'S GONNA LOOK SHARP.  I CAN'T WAIT!  I REALLY JUST CAN'T WAIT TO MARRY ANG.  OF COURSE THE DAY WILL TOTALLY ROCK OUT, BUT THE MARRIAGE IS GONNA BE THE BEST! 

welp, i'm a tired pup.  i think i'm just gonna chill out for awhile.  ya'll take care.  roger over and out...liz

The rumors are true!  Andrew and I are engaged as of Saturday, November 26th!  No one in the world is as happy as I am!  On July 22nd, 2006 I will marry my best friend, my sweetie pie, my sugar muffin, my chip chop, my shonk, my Andrew Douglas Lanker.  Elizabeth Ann Lanker...ahh...I love it!  Some people are telling me that I should hyphenate my last name with his for the mere fact that my initials would spell EARL.  I don't think so ya'll.  I am so proud to gain 2 new brothers, 2 new sisters, a wonderful set of parents, and a hubby!  Wedding plans are comin' right along.  Today I set foot in David's Bridal.  I tried on soo many dresses.  It was great!  Life is awesome.  God has just taken ahold of my life and done so many beautiful things.  I only have Him to thank for all of this awesomeness.  Thank You Jesus OHHHHHH SOOOOO MUCH for all of this!  I LOVE YOU!
