I'm Engaged




I can't believe it. Spencer showed up yesterday and surprised me. He had flown in early yesterday morning and spent the whole day with my parents. They went to The Morton Arboretum for lunch.
Spencer took me out for a romantic dinner at Mill Race Inn in Geneva. I guess that it was one of my grandparents favorite places to go. Then he surprised me with a horse drawn carriage ride through the historic part of Geneva. After about 15-20 min. we got off the the carriage and started to walk on a path that goes right along the river. While we were walking he got down on his knee and asked, "Emily Darice Lorimor, will you marry me and be my wife?" in reply I said,"Yes,Yes,Yes!!!" Then we walked back to the carriage and rode around a little longer. When we got home my family was there waiting in anticipation that Spencer had done something. So we are engaged!!!!

Time Flies!!!!



So, a lot has happened since my last post.

Spencer and I went to the Bears Vs. Packers game on Sep 10th at Lambeau Field. It was a great game (if you were a Bears fan). GO Bears GO!!! We won 27-0!!!! We are looking forward to the Dec 31st game in Chicago. It will be a little on the cold side, but it should still be fun.

Stephen had is 3 month birthday on the 28th of this month. He is growing so fast. I can't believe how big he is getting. I was able to go down there last weekend. Ryan, Heidi, Dave (Ryan's Dad), and I went to the Iowa, UofI game. It was fun. Heidi and I got some good time together!

Spencer and I have decided that we are going to live in Texas. I am going down there this weekend and we are going to meet with a builder on Saturday. We have two house designs that we really like. I am sure that the builder will have a couple aswell. It will be interesting to see what comes of this weekend.
