Engaged!!!!!


In "Italy" at Epcot

I'm engaged!!!! I am so happy!!!! It was a wonderful weekend. This picture was taken about 3 minutes after the proposal. We were standing there basking in our elation (also known as kissing) and this woman walked up to us and said that she would have given anything for someone to take her picture when her husband proposed to her. I guess she had seen Jon get on one knee and assumed that he was proposing. Good thing he wasn't just tying his shoe! :) Anyway she was very kind and took this photo. My eyes are puffy because I started crying but I don't care. Jon's sons were with us but had conveniently wanted to go explore on their own. They were so sweet. And so very happy for us. I wanted to make sure they were on board with the engagement and am very happy to learn they were very excited and happy for us. They are such wonderful kids and I am very thankful to have their blessing. I am thankful for all the blessings I have in my life. No wedding date is set. I'll keep you posted :)

Congratulations! I am glad nobody was there to take my photo only minutes after we got engaged, I was in my dressing gown and had hair colour running down my face!

Such an exciting time, good to hear the kids are on side, they will help to make it even more exciting.
