THE proposal

Guys feel free to take the day off, or not, your choice.

The family received this email from The Fashionista.

Hello family! 


     I'm sure by now you've all heard the wonderfully exciting news but I just wanted make sure.... Chris and I are engaged!!! He proposed on Wednesday, the 17th of October at our apartment in Clayton. 


     Here's the story: Even though I knew he was going to propose, I hadn't the faintest idea of when, where, or how. He succeeded at completely throwing me off and surprising me! One of his two younger sisters, Courtney, is in her second year at Webster University as a Film major. She informed me that she had a group project for her Film 1 course, focused on lighting and sound. She asked me if Chris and I would be able to help her out by lending our apartment for an afternoon and Chris and I running a few silly lines they wrote up as well. I agreed and let her know that Wednesday would be good since it was my day off. 300+ pounds of lighting and sound equipment later..... 



Catalina's mother and I couldn't be happier.

Oh I seem to have gotten something in my eyes. Probably un-burnt cordite or some other manly thing! Too, too perfect, joy to you all.

Your daughter looks like a young Maureen Dowd. Can't stand MoDo's writing/politics but she is a beautiful woman.
