Not too much to write about for now. Just wanted to give you a few pictures. Jude was a Gnome. Mom and Dad were Prom King and Queen Zombies.
See you soon!

HOW WE MET
We met at a little get-together I had when I was house sitting for Mom & Dad. He came up to me, introduced himself and thanked me for having him out. He had tagged along with some of the other Zeta guys I had invited. (Thanks to my brother, Jeff, and friend Jamie) We took a moonlit walk down to the water where he told me of his fear of frogs and aliens.
THE PROPOSAL
Christmas 2004, we went out to dinner and to the Nutcracker. After the show, as we walked out of the theater, I saw a big black limousine sitting in front of the theater. Right as I got ready to say, “Oh, Ben, I want to ride in a limo sometime” (as I do each time I see one) he whispered, “I have a surprise, this one is for us.” So, I jumped into the limo just as fast as I could. He got in and opened a bottle of wine and we drove around and around looking at the Christmas lights . Soon, we were at the Columbus Crew stadium, where we had our first date. We got out of the limo and headed for the field. I could see two chairs sitting alone on the the field, and then one of our favorite songs started to play throughout the entire stadium. The whole place was empty and the lights were shining onto the field. We were walking around when I noticed a slide show of pictures of us on the score board. He said, jokingly, “I bought the field for you!” We went to the chairs and watched the rest of the slide show. Then, our favorite song came on. We stood up and started to dance. He said the most wonderful things to me, and then he reached into his pocket, pulled out a ring, got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said, “Of course I’ll marry you.” We cried and laughed and danced for a while longer and then he started waiving to someone. He had invited my parents and brothers to be there and watch the whole thing (and to catch it all on video). So they came onto the field and started crying and laughing along with us. It was the most wonderful and magical night of my life. It still feels like a dream!

How did I go a week?!? I'm completely loving the candy on the go shot of Jude - I wish I was "chillin' with that gnomie"! Who says you can't wear a bridesmaid dress again - I'm sure Shenanigans is proud. You guys are SCARY! Nice work. Miss you...
