Hey all,
Thanks again for all the replies.  ATlien,  Yes, indeed they are.  You were the first to notice.  The pictures were, after all, like I said, taken at her bachlorette party.  
 
  
How we met....Internet.  No joke.  There is hope for you people.  
 
How we got engaged....  On our two year anniversary, I took her out to eat.  After dinner, I gave her her anniversary gift...pretty simple, just a box of magnetic poetry from Books A Million...  When she opened it, there was already a poem put together inside.  It said "Will you marry me" --and there was the engagement ring.  I had to make the "marry" magnet.  (Good thing I have a degree in graphic design!

)  THat situation worked out cool because she had been begging for magnetic poetry, and I had no ring box.  
 
Since then, it's been great.  We have a really amazing relationship.  She is all about computers, and really respects me and what I do with them.  The only nagging she ever does about me being on the computer is along the lines of "WHY DO YOU NOT HAVE INTERNET SHARING ON?!"  --She has her own little station in the home LAN.  
 
She is a brilliant person, an amazing teacher, and she's 100% committed to go wherever my career takes us.  OH, and she loves to ride my motorcycle with me, and fully supports the idea of getting bigger and better bikes (as long as they are not loud an obnoxious, which I wouldn't want anyway.)
It's clear she's the one for me.  Our wedding will be somewhat big, but very personal.  My best friend since adolescence is the minister marrying us, and my father is the best man.  The wedding's in Birmingham, AL, if any of you are close by or care to make the drive.  
Again, thanks for everyone's support and replies.  The next pictures you will see will be WEDDING PICS!  

  Sorry, no honeymoon pictures.
