My best friend, Jen, got engaged this weekend to her boyfriend, Jed. Jed took her to their family ranch Saturday morning and proposed there. Her parents had flown in the night before from Arizona so her sister picked them up from the airport and suprised Jen Saturday. Jonathan and I were on our way to Jed’s parents house Saturday night to see the happy couple and celebrate with them when Jonathan’s truck started making a very loud rattling and grinding noise. Keep in mind we just had the transmission rebuilt about 3 weeks ago. We ended taking the truck to his parents house in Mesquite so he and his dad could look at it. Well to make a long story short we had the truck towed from Mesquite to south of Waxahachie Sunday afternoon and is curently waiting fo the mechanic to look at it. Then we will probably turn around and sell it so we can get a newer truck with less mechanical trouble. Anyway to make a very long story short, we were unable to go see Jen, Jed and Jen’s parents. I felt horrible, I could care less about the truck at that point, I just wanted to share this time with my best friend. It was probably one of the happiest days of her life and I couldn’t be there at all and share the joy with her. I am so happy for them and wish them all the best–I love you guys!
I’m just now back to reading your blog after a whirlwind of a week engaged! We were sad that you couldn’t stop by on Saturday – but TOTALLY understand. It’s not your fault! It’s the car’s fault! š There will be plenty of time to celebrate in the next 8 months. We love you guys!
