It's Official!!

Well . . . YES, I am engaged! Mike (and all the kids) proposed to me on Friday night. It was very sweet and fun and everyone seems excited - including me!! My ring is a big CITRINE stone and quite vintage looking, I love it! The date is 07-07-07 - at 7pm and there will be 7 of us blending together - fun stuff! I'll keep you posted as the details come together.

PS. I am down 10lbs - yeah!

Congratulations you two. I know God will bless you both as you come together and form a type of Brady Bunch family. Wow, many challenges ahead but I know you two are up to it with Christ at the helm. Love you both! Can't wait to hear about the details!

Congrats! Mike picked an amazing woman...or was at least lucky enough to be picked by her! Our family welcomes yours whole-heartedly. I can't wait to call you "sister-in-law" and I know Jordan can't wait to call Levi "cousin"!! Maybe you'll atually get to finally meet Chris at the wedding......

Love you all,
Michelle
