Yes!

It was Saturday morning, I made breakfast in bed for my love with hoped anticipation of an engagement. Underneath an unsuspecting cup intermixed with fresh sweezed orange juice, coffee, bacon and eggs and potatoes, was a little black box waithing to be discovered.
Well, the momemt I had prayed for and hope for was about to change my life forever...
Amy, opted out of tea this morning, thus missing the prize (at least for the moment).
We enjoyed a nice quiet breakfast along with an equally great conversation. Eventually, I told her that I would be intersted in having some tea if she chose to pass. So there it was, underneath her nose, a black bos of which contents were a 1 carrot diamond waiting to be discoverd.
I then got on my knees and as a tear rolled down her cheek, it was in that moment that I asked her to share the rest of my life with her. I am so blessed to say that her answer was indeed, Yes!
The day just kept getting better. We were hosting a Super Bowl part on Sunday with good friends so we spent the afternoon shoping for the event. In the evening, we enjoyed an amazing concert in Seattle. We couldn't of had better seats, 5 ft. form the stage and in the center. It was world class trumpeter,Chris Botti and his equally incredible band. What an amazing ending to an amazing day. So now I find my life heading in a new direction and am very happy indeed. The fact that her family and mine (Both my children and extended family) are on board makes it esspecially great. Praise God for his incredible blessings!
