the newest addition to our family!

Yep, that's right! We have big news in our family. In a few months, we'll have a new family member. Mark & Lindsay got engaged this weekend! We were on vacation at Vogel State Park in North Georgia when he popped the question. I'd like to put it on the record that I called it. No, I didn't know he was going to do it (he kept a pretty good secret), but I guessed it might happen while we were there. It is, after all, his favorite place to be. Anyway, he did it right after the bluegrass concert at the pavillion, which ended with an exciting rendition of "Y'all Come". Oh, and Lindsay did say yes. As you can imagine, we were all shocked & thrilled to hear the news! [Of course I wasn't quite as shocked since I predicted it...nevermind the crying I exhibited :-)] Here is a picture of the ring, the happy couple at the spot of their engagement, and a pic of the location in the daytime so you can see it.

I will also have some more pics from our vacation once this blogger thing quits trippin' and I can get my slide show to work.
