Red letter date


Couldn't wait to share our good news. Over an impromptu Monday night dinner at our favorite local restaurant, the Liberty Bar (our Volkswagen Easter Post). LondonHim popped "The Question". Completely surprising me into speechlessness. I believe I just shook my head in the affirmative- a lot. LH says he has been hunting just the right ring for a year. Apparently my engagement ring has been hanging out on the top shelf of our pantry for a month or so. Why the top shelf, you ask? Because shorty can't reach.
