Well there are 4 days left before Tanya and I wed. We are soooo excited. Yesterday was a busy day for me as I worked a full day and then drove down to Kentucky and picked up the finished projects I have been working on. Tanya had a full day of work and then errands.
Today was a full day as well as I went to work, Tanya was busy cleaning the house and getting it ready with Sherri for our joining. After work I was able to get some of my clothing put away before our evening with Jennifer. Jennifer had requested our presence for an evening and tonight was it. We first went over to the UD softball field where she had the upper deck set up with a table for 2 including a couple wine glasses, white roses and rose peddles all around, and candles. She had an apron on and towel over her arm as she poured the sparkling grape juice. She presented a gift and then had pizza delivered for dinner. While we ate she had a musician come and play softly in the background with her guitar and amazing vocals. Once dinner was finished we went down to toss the softball around a little, a favorite past time for both Tanya and myself. Once finished we went back to our table overlooking the softball field with line chalk showing the letter "T" a heart and the letter "D". She had us open another gift, a scrape book showing Tanya's life. This started with Daryl and his baby picture and a military picture and then went into the family tree and into her travels and then her softball years at UD. There were pages left unfinished as they have yet to be written starting with how we met up until after the honeymoon. We then were presented with our final gift of the evening, a picture with several things that will help to remind us of things to do to have a happy and honoring marriage.
Well that is all for right now. Thank you again for following us in our journey. We love all of you guys.

7 Days Left!!!!
Hello everyone!!! What an exciting time it has been for us. I will do my best to catch everyone up. I know I have not kept you guys up to date like I said I would so I will be doing my best to give you day to day updates up until Friday. Once Friday hits it is going to be crazy so you will just have to wait until Saturday to find out what all is going on.
First off we would like to thank everyone for their support and they prayers. We feel that there could not be a more blessed couple than ourselves. You all have truly made us feel special, loved, and cared for. Thank you everyone for the cards and the advice you have left on our message board and emails.
Well everyone for the wedding has been completed. The DJ is set. The dress has been perfected (like it needed any work other than for Tanya to put it on). The tuxedos are being prepare. The cake will be made this week... yes the wonderful cheesecake that everyone will get to enjoy. I do not think we told you what flavor(s) there are going to be but... we have to leave some details for mystery. The final preparations for decorations are ready and just waiting for Saturday to come. The Schindler Banquet Hall is preparing as we speak... well is it Saturday at 9:49 pm so they might be getting an early night rest tonight, but tomorrow they are hitting the floors with their toothbrushes and buckets... ok maybe a mop but I like to think otherwise. The chapel is ready. Our vows are being finished. I am moving most of my things over tomorrow after church and just living in a suitcase so to speak for a week. (everyone needs to stop rhyming, I meant it. Anyone want a peanut? - Princess Bride) The music is ready.
We had several wedding showers over the past couple weeks. One I was able to attend and it was an absolute blast. Sherri and Jennifer and so many people worked so hard to make it wonderful and it truly was. It was the best one I have ever been to... well it is my only one but, several people stated the same thing so I think I am safe to say that. We have been blessed by so many people and we would love to thank everyone. We look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday, or whenever they fly, drive, or transport in. Again, thank you to everyone who has made this an amazing process and being so generous and loving.
Please keep my grandmother in your prayers. She recently had surgery on her back and the recovery is a long process. We love her very much and know how hard she is working to get back in shape. We love you grandma.
Love
Tanya and Dave

Day 80-106
Hello everyone,
Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year's. It has been a very busy yet blessing time for us. Chuck. my little brother came home and has made some great decisions and is follow Christ even more now. What a blessing that is to us. We have gotten rooms blocked off for 2 different hotels, one for people to be closer to Springboro and one for people to be closer to Dayton. If you need any information relating to hotels please contact me via phone if you have my number or email at david.ghysels@gmail.com. We have set up the majority of our gift registries including Kohls, Cutco, Home Depot, and Bed Bath and Beyond.
We got to spend Christmas with my family here in Ohio and Jan came in to visit with us. It was a great time to get to meet her and to be able to get to know her a little. We were very blessed with people being so generous with their gifts, many of which are helping out with the wedding. Thank you everyone. Our honeymoon is being planned and my grandparents are sending us to.... well Kaua'i, HI. We are very excited about this. We got to spend some time with the Hart's which was wonderful. They truly are a family that opens up their home to me and have taken care of Tanya for so many years. I am so grateful for this.
We will be sending out the invitations here shortly. I know I said we were going to send out the save the dates but my delay on the subject has pushed us past the point of sending so please forgive me. We you do receive your invite please just go to the website, I will unlock the RSVP page, and register there. This will just help us to have a quick and accurate account of all who will be celebrating with us on this special day.
We spent the New Year with Jodi, Sherri, Johnie, Danny, Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, Dad, and Chuck for a little, he had previous plans with his friends. It was a great night filled with lots of food, games, and fellowship.
We have also picked out the tuxedos for the wedding. I am really excited to wear it but you cannot tell Tanya because then she might get the idea that I enjoy dressing up, which is not the case.
I am sorry it is short but I must get some more stuff done before Tanya gets off of work. We love you guys and cannot wait to celebrate with you guys.
Love
Dave and Tanya
