My son proposed to his girlfriend last night and she accepted! I'm so excited for them. He was so romantic--took her to the beach on Lake Michigan where they had their first date, sang her a song he wrote, she cried, he pulled the ring out of the Silly Putty he'd stuck it to the inside of his guitar with--it got stuck in the goo, they said. Anyway, she called me from the car on their way back to their apartments. I can hardly wait to see them this weekend.
Any suggestions for an engagement gift?
It is going to be a wonderfully celebratory weekend with the twins' graduation open house and sharing this great news!
Those of you who've been around on the board here for a few years, remember when I'd post messages about how my ds was driving me nuts and dating a controlling manipulative girl (when he was sixteen)? This is WAY better than that! If I was to pick a mate for him, I'd pick her.
That is awesome!!! As for an engagement gift, you could make them an album for their "wedding planning", like her picking out a dress, him getting a tux, etc..
I used to be a "celebrity cherry", but now I'm in re-hab...... Holy Carp!
I am so happy for you and your family! CONGRATS!

This is wonderful! I'm so happy for you!
All of you.
Start the engagement album now!
For an engagement gift give them something for their new home that can be an heirloom one day.

What a fun time in your life. I love the idea of scrapping their engagement and wedding planning.

---Jan---
awesome...and I agree, start and engagement album, it will be fun for them 
~Angie~congratulations! that is so exciting! I too love the idea of scrapping the planning, that is such a big part of the whole thing and often gets overlooked and forgotten. I spent forever picking the perfect song to dance with my Dad to, and now I can't even remember what song it was let alone why I chose it.
