She Said Yes!

... and she hasn't stopped smiling since! Tyler talked to Larry this last week, so we knew it was coming, just not the details of when. Last night Tyler took her for a picnic with friends and they went for a walk and when they got back, their friends were gone, candles were lit and rose petals scattered. He got down on his knee and proposed, completely surprising Lindsey ... That is the condensed version of the story... we gathered in our bedroom this morning with everyone and to hear Lindsey tell it with all the details was much better. I believe we are looking at the weekend before Thanksgiving for a wedding.

It is good to see Lindsey so happy and with Tyler. They are a very good fit together. We love him and look forward to having him join our family. He is just weird enough that he will fit in perfectly :)
