You surpass them all
From Wednesday evening to tonight was quite the last few days! Unbeknownst to almost everyone but family I flew home wednesday night (taking off the rest of the week - thanks Park Street for not even knocking any days off!) I got in super late Wednesday, around 1am and my parents and little bro grabbed me from MCI. Waking up early I had prearranged a small dual family breakfast to ask a very important question to two men I greatly respect and admire, my father, and the father of my best friend, now fiance! After receiving the go I went to pick up the ring that afternoon and spent the rest of the day running errands around town getting things ready for tonight. Yesterday, I showed up at her work for lunch, her not even knowing I was in town. It was an awesome lunch, even though in my selfishness I took her to Wendy's...what a gal to put up with that. Friday evening we actually didn't hang out as I told her I needed to spend a night with my, now 21, brother. Mike helped me get everything ready for tonight! We spent the entire day together and instead of giving you all the details of the last few months, all the late night conversations we've had that have led to this point, and what happened during the day let me just tell you I'm the luckiest man ever! BJ is my best friend, worth far more than rubies, my confidence is in her and she has brought me good and joy all the days of my life. "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all." You have always been with me and you are always my best friend, I love you and that is no joke. Without further waiting, let me announce to you all that we are officially engaged! We haven't set a date or even discussed any plans - but, I'm happy, excited, and for the first time in a long time - feel the blessedness of love from a person I care deeply about. All my blessings to you my friends, family, and new Fiance!
"Just to see you smile I'd do anything, that you wanted me to, when all is said and done, I'd never count the cost, it's worth all that's lost, just to see you smile."

You know what BJ and I enjoy most about the first of every month, especially the first of April? Because you realize who all the "fools" are! Ha Ha
p.s. The ring is digital - mad hacker skills up in this mug, and, well, I couldn't afford something even that big on this salary
You pretty much suck. I started to fall for that one hook, line and sinker. I even saw your parents and took Michael out last night and still fell for it. Good one. I think Michael had a good time while he was out with me and the guys on his birthday. I'm not sure how it went after I dropped them all off back at home. He is pretty pumped to come see you and not have to sit outside the bars when you all go.
Have a good one,
Laura
Nice, sorry, you didn't have me for a second. But a was a good story. Jim and I told my family at dinner last night, April 1st is also my Dad's birthday, that we were pregnant. My mom started shreeking with excitement and my sister was almost in tears. It was hillarious. Then my mom said it wasn't funny at all and she was no longer speaking to me :) of course that didn't last long.
I HATE YOU MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE IN THE ENTIRE WORLD RIGHT NOW!!!!!! HOW CAN I BE LIKE FAMILY TO FREAKING BOTH OF YOU AND STILL FALL FOR SOMETHING THIS COMPLETELY MORONIC???
Well this is a suprise I suppose Congratulations are in order I assume you know that Santa Claus does not like jokes nor do senior runners. Consulted with your Mother and she put me straight but with lauras answer I pretty much figured it out.
Like I said it not nice to fool senior runners
OR SANTA CLAUS
Ha, ha! That was a good one Ty + Beege! Good April fools joke!
Hey yeah thats cool. It took me by suprise earlier I came running down the stairs saying what the hell is going on you all would tell me if my own brother was engaged. I mean you didnt tell me about you and your other love either so I guess its my own fault. Not to mention I should have picked up on you saying you were coming to hang out with me. I didnt see you unless your superman well. Thats only in my eyes. Anyways nice joke on your own bros birthday. Glad it wasnt on me haha. Later pal. Your Bro Mike
Not cool Tyler, not cool.
i spoke with my dad today and he told me about the joke. as you can tell i'm as bad at checking blogs as i am at posting on my own. anyway, i'm very proud, it inspires me with hope that you have in fact, not, lost a step. take care brother.
Lost a step? Bro, I have done nothing but invent new one's since the day I was born, wanna learn one? Surely you have a few to teach me when we connect again!
Until then, any news on the comp and possible isight conference?
