Segways!

Before the gardens closed at Thanksgiving Point Doug and I went and rode around on their segways. They were SO fun. We tried playing tag on them, but I ran into a tree so we decided to stop for safety purposes. They are pretty easy to ride and very entertaining.

California




Doug, Me, his cousing Davey and his friend Ashley went to California for the Halloween weekend. We went to six flags for the first day, and the beach the second day. One really fun thing was seeing all the places where Doug lived in California. It was great to meet his family and stay with his grandparents. They were so hospitable. One bad thing was that six flags has created a need for me to ride more rollar coasters...

Finally Engaged!


Because we are now official, we are starting a blog together! Tonight Doug popped the big question...slipped the big sparkler on my finger! We were walking around the Riverwoods shopping center and he casually asked if I wanted to eat at Magelby's (he actually had reservations and all). While we were eating he got down on one knee, said a lot of really sweet and wonderful things and of course I said yes. A great plus was that his brother Shane and his girlfriend Becca were secretly there to video the great event. So, mark the date...January 2nd!
