Good News!
http://adammonsen.com/mig…ged_outside.jpg
Last night at 9pm I asked Eva to marry me. She said “Yes!”
Am I lucky or what? :)
We went to Wild Ginger and had an amazing feast. I took her back to my front porch–where we met a little over a year ago–got down on one knee and made it official.
Just recently we went to Minnesota for a week to hang out with Eva’s family, and I (after much scheming) was able to meet privately with her parents to ask for their blessing.
Now the real fun begins!
Rock n Roll. Congratulations Adam and Eva! Have you guys picked out a mini-van yet?

Congratulations Adam! I had the blessing of a break at work this morning when Eva called and told me the good news. This is far from necessary, but I wholly approve!
:)
I’m so happy for you both. Now, to start saving up for a ticket to the wedding…. :)

I wanted to make sure your had us on the “definately will be there” list for the up coming nuptials. Eva mentioned needing RSVP and I got paranoid thinking we may not have. So there you have it little big cousin.
See you soon, can’t wait, let us know if anything is needed, we would love to help with whatever. Love the Bellingham contingent.
