The Proposal


So, the deal was that Michael had asked Megan on a date one night.  But he had his two younger brothers pick her up.  They drove around a bit and then ended up here at the Riverwoods Mall where it was all lit up for Christmas.  They escorted Megan to the Gazebo in the middle of the mall where Michael was set up with his guitar and hooked up to speakers and amplifier.  Michael had written a song for and about Megan.  As he was singing, some of his friends and family were standing in the background with posters that said, "I love you because.... " and we each held a different reason that Michael loves Megan.

Then at the end of the song we flipped our posters over and they read "Megan McGee will you marry me"!  At the same time Michael had those same words in his song to her.  Then he got down on one knee and with the ring she had chosen, he asked her to marry him.  Megan said he was crying when he asked her.  Then they hugged and kissed and we walked around the mall and took pictures and we all got some hot chocolate.  It was a fun experience!






And that is how it all began!  Some time I will tell you about our experience driving out there that night.  It was the first real snow storm of the season and everything that could go wrong, went wrong. 
Michael and I drove out together and it was a comical experience! 
Anyway, I am so happy for my baby boy!  They are an awesome couple!
