I knew it was in the works for a while. The young man asked my wife and me for permission last November. I was starting to get concerned with how long it was taking him. I figured he'd spring the question on Christmas... nope. Then thought Valentines day... nope. Then thought her birthday in April... nope. I was beginning to think about making the young man re-ask for permission. But he called and said he was having a custom ring made and it was taking longer than expected.

Last weekend, they went to New Mexico to help on a family cattle roundup. At the end of a long day, they rode their horses to the top of a mesa, and he got down on his knee and proposed as the sun was setting. Got to give him credit, he knew the dream she always dreamt and made it memorable.

No date set yet. I'm watching my wife and 2 daughters (and every other female in our clan) spring into planning mode. They're all frugal, but I still see dollar signs in my future. Oh well, there aren't any pockets in a casket.

Congratulations, may they be blessed with a wonderful and long life together, and may you one day have some grandbabies to shower with love.

To top it off, she just won her barrel race tonight, fastest time in the top division. And she did it on a horse she raised from a yearling and saddle broke when she was a 15 year old kid.
