On December 1st, they popped the question.... that's right, I said "they!"
(reenactment photos)
On this Wednesday night, Chris insisted I come over after I went to paint with Megan and Lauren! He said Lily wanted to see me before she went to bed! Never mind that my painting thing took WAY longer than I thought... and kept me out til 10:00... and Lily was still up waiting for me! lol. When I arrived the garage door was locked (which was odd!). I fumbled for my keys and finally got the door open. Lily yelled, "WAIT! Don't come in yet!!!" This might have tipped someone else off to something being up, but Lily is a surprise-a-holic, so her telling me to wait was nothing unusual! She's always hiding or making a "surprise" of her own. Finally, she said, "Okay, come in!" I walked int to the living room and there, in their PJs, I saw the two loves of my life kneeling together on a pink baby doll blanket! They smiled, asked in unison, "Will you marry us?" I am told that my reply was a stunned, "NO WAY!!!!!" (seriously). :-) The Lily reached behind her and pulled out a box, opened it, and showed me the ring. Then in true Lily fashion, she elbowed her dad and said, "Okay dad, do your part like I showed you." ...and he took the ring from the box, placed it on my finger, asked me if that was a yes, and we all three covered each other in hugs and kisses! I am, officially, the happiest girl in the world. It was, beyond a doubt, the most perfect proposal ever. After which Lily proclaimed, "now I can have lots of brothers and sisters!!!!!" :-) LOL.... I like the way that girl thinks! ;-)
