The Fighter's

Two weeks ago today I was giving my little brother a lecture on popping the question - it has after all been 5+ years, Lindsay is an absolute keeper and he is head over heels about her.  Pat remained tight lipped and sort of egged me on with my lecture...little did I know... One week ago Pat came downstairs at my parents house and said to my mom, dad, Doug and I "I made a purchase", then pulled out a ring.  My mom and I jumped up and down all over the living room...squealing and acting like a couple of 6th graders.  My dad then high fived my mom.  Pat was finally going to pop the question... And today... Pat asked Lindsay to be his wife!  He planned it out perfectly with a nice dinner out, walk in the park where he got down on one knee, asked...and she responded tearfully..."are you kidding me?"  Obviously she said YES!  He also coordinated a meeting place for all of her favorite people...her wonderful family from Cincinnati, friends from all over and our Conov

Ava got to attend Safety Township this past week.  She had an absolute BALL!  She learned all about fire safety, car safety, crossing the street, stranger safety and bus safety.   She even got to ride on a big yellow bus and drive little motorized cars around a small play village.  The week got her even more psyched for kindergarten!  We got to go and watch the closing program and snap some pics!

Nothing makes my heart smile more than little girls giggling, smiling and loving each other...
