Yes, that's right. 10 years ago John proposed. 10 years ago Shani said yes! Most people might wonder what day they got engaged, maybe some can remember easily. For Shani it's pretty easy as it's her brother's birthday. For John, he's just that great! We get home from being over at Shani's parents house and Landon tells Shani about a "surprise" in the backyard. Shani didn't understand and thought he was talking about the laundry that was hung out there. But sure enough there was a surprise... a very thoughtful one. John had re-created our engagement. He set up a tent with rose pedals and rocks leading up to it. He found someone selling a picture of the creek that runs along where we were and had it sitting next to it. Inside the tent was a hand written note (similar to the one he wrote 10 years ago), the rock that we actually took from our engagement as a souvenir, and diamond bands that Shani has been wanting for her wedding ring! We've been so blessed to be married to our best friend for 9 years (engaged for 10 :-)) and have two wonderful sons! Life is great!
