An Unusual Place for an Engagement Party

Did you know it is possible to throw an engagement party in an airport?

My dear husband decided we should welcome back the happily engaged couple who had went, along with my son, to a youth retreat in Tennessee and then up to visit friends in Michigan, as well.

It was a red-eye flight, the airport was quietening down after a day of thousands bustling through its corridors.  Restaurants had closed but not before we had received permission to set up in one of them.

Justus and Audrey were so happy to see their brother Zachary.  Since he became engaged they have really latched on to him.

Pretty nice, Russell.  Pretty nice.  (I think he did a beautiful job, don’t you.)

Hey, we look pretty good for it being past midnight.

And we can’t forget Wesley.  We were glad to see him back, too!

 Our family of 8…

will soon be 9 on May 18, 2013.

Yes, we now have a wedding date!

I’m sure you’ll be hearing more about the wedding as we go along. I’ll be pretty involved myself since I will making the food for the reception… oh, and then there’s the rehearsal dinner.  Yikes!
