Engagement!!!

Wow, this is loooong overdue!  Where do I start? 
Okay...long ago, on Feb 23, 2005, my boyfriend(Chris Vandergrift) had a fabulous idea...Chinese take out(his favorite!) & inviting some friends over to our townhouse.  Everything was going according to plan & then I received a call from Chris' sister.  She wanted to come over too!  Her explaination was as follows: to use up the film in her camera on our dog, so she could get her pics developed...likely story, lol...& I bought it!  The more the merrier, right? 
After dinner, Chris...who might I add, is NOT a "sweets eater" pulled out half of a carrot cake from the frig for dessert.  Strange!?  His sister, Mary insisted that, "if I have to eat a piece, you have to eat one with me!"  For any of you who know me, I usually don't turn don't food, so I accepted.  Chris served everyone...me 1st..with a silly grin on his face....along with a bunch of stares, picture taking & silly grins....Strange #2!?
Then, low & behold...I looked down at my piece of cake & WUAAA LAAA...bling, bling!  Yep, there...stuck in my cake, was a diamond ring!!! 
And so it begins....the story of my life!
                    I had no idea my sneaky, soon to be sister in law was taking pics...isn't he cute!
                         Grins & silly faces as my cake sits in front of me & I had NO CLUE, lol!
                                              Bling~Bling...notice I'm already outta my seat!
                                                         big hugs & kisses to my love!!
   Had to get a pic with my sneaky...soon to be sister in law, that I love & glad she captured these moments!
