Great News!

I got home last night around 6:15. As soon as I walked in the door Dan told me I needed to take a look at the sunglasses he'd just bought me (they came in a big case) because they had a funny rattle. I was like..."okay, what do you mean their rattling?" He handed me the case, I shook it and there was an obvious noise coming from the box. I opened it...and what did I find?? It wasn't a broken pair of sunglasses, it was an ENGAGEMENT RING!!

He asked if I'd marry him, and of course being caught completely off guard it took a good 15 minutes before I was able to say yes.

Needless to say, it was a great New Year's Eve! After several phone calls and a stop at Cub we finally made it to Adam & Amanda's for dinner.

We had a great time playing with their little girl Ava, who is almost 3 months old. We all took turns with the Paraspa & did our hands, elbows & feet. Once Ava went to bed we played a couple of games & watched the ball drop in New York. Amanda even let the future bride and groom use their champagne flutes from their wedding in August.

I hope everyone had as a great a New Year's Eve as we did!
