On the morning of Veteran's Day, Jeff called to ask if we could have a pizza party (his treat!) at the house to celebrate not only this patriotic occasion, but also his sister and niece's birthday.
All of us who could, gathered to be together and to hang out on this Monday evening. Some had suspicions but I didn't have a clue as to what would happen next!
Jeff stood up and announced the terrific news that he and Chelsea were engaged! The proposal had taken place the day before, at the zoo, and it was all photographed as it happened by Chelsea's sister and their cousin who was visiting. We had a great time enjoying the succession of photos!
Chelsea loves her ring and it was delightful to hear the story of how Jeff picked it out and kept it hidden until the big moment when she said "Yes".
The pizza was delicious and it was a real treat to hear our lovely Cindi laughing and so happy, as we all were with this exciting news.
Now we can talk about that perennially fun topic- planning the wedding!!! Congratulations to our engaged couple!
Meg enjoyed her Birthday Party with so many family members in attendance, as well.
