On Friday my son Josh’s girlfriend Katie graduated from Vet Tech school. Josh rented a limo to pick them up and whisk them off to a nice restaurant for what Katie thought was a nice graduation present. Little did she know. Much to Katie’s surprise, not long into the trip Josh pulled out a ring and proposed! From the accounts I hear of the event she was quite surprised.

This engagement was pretty much a forgone conclusion so Josh had to think hard and get creative to actually surprise Katie. Sounds like he did a great job. Carole and I are proud of our son and we’re blessed and honored that Katie will soon be part of the family.

Here’s a shot I took of them in January when Katie was in Texas for a visit meeting all the extended family.

Katie’s sister Shannon  Morse got a shot of them on the special day before they took off in the limo. Take a look at Shannon’s blog post on the subject. Shannon’s an up an coming photographer in the Northern California area. She’s getting very good, very fast. That’s not flattery, just take a look at her blog. We’ll be going out to the Sacramento area this coming weekend and Shannon and I plan on “tag-teaming” an engagement photo shoot while I’m there. Should be a riot. Stay-tuned….
