Housewarming & SURPRISE Proposal

Saturday was Charlie & Jenny's housewarming party. 

I had a lot to do before the party: finish my Nutrition project, take a Nutrition test, buy khakis for Taste of Charleston and last but not least... watch the Carolina/Kentucky game (see blog below!). Needless to say, I had a busy morning and knew there was no way I was going to have it all done before the party started at 2:00. I got everything done, and still managed to get everything checked off my "to-do" list and was headed to the party at 4:00 - I know, but I had to be fashionably late, right? I ran by Publix to grab beer, and while I was there I thought champagne would even better, so grabbed beer and 2 bottles of champagne and headed the party. 

As I was en route to the housewarming party, Charlie decided it would be the perfect time to thank all their friends and family for celebrating their new house and new chapter in their life. Sweet right? Well he continued on about their relationship, and they journey they took to get them where they were today. At this point she asked her to stand, and he proceeded to ask her to marry him! She was completely caught off guard and replied "Are you SERIOUS?!!" and the "YES!" I was on the phone with Julie getting directions right after this excitement, and she couldn't help but tell me. As soon as I got to the house, the newly engaged couple happen to be standing in the garage, which gave me a moment to congratulate them one on one before we joined the rest of the party. I guess it is a good thing I brought the champagne!! We popped the first bottle right away, and continued to celebrate the two of them all night! 


I couldn't be happier for the two of them!
