The Engagement: Un-Independence Day

July 4, 2012 Jeff made it official!! I told him that I would say "no" if he proposed to me at a soccer game so I was slightly unprepared for a proposal just after the RSL game during the fireworks. I was a little nervous that it would happen at half-time because he had been down on the field pre-game for a long time so I was worried I would have to say "no" to him in front of thousands on the jumbo-tron at halftime. Luckily for him, and me, once the fireworks started after the game he pulled me into the owner's suite and asked me to marry him with fireworks in the background and a sparkly ring in his hand. Obviously, I said "yes!"*  Thanks to Bobby (Jeff's brother) for capturing the moment on film. Here are some pictures:

*actually, the first thing I said was, "oh cool, that little box has a light" and then "YES!!!"
