A Welcome Change of Focus

While Melissa's boyfriend was here for a visit in April, he asked Keith for his blessing to propose to our daughter.  On his next visit here on May 18th, he asked Melissa to marry him (FYI: this is Keith's birthday - best birthday present ever as we love him).

We agonized for about a week over what to do next.
  • Should we try to throw a wedding together ASAP while I am still here to be present?
  • If we go for it and I crash, do we just cancel at the last minute?
  • Should we just throw a big party to celebrate the engagement?
  • If we decide against proceeding with a quick wedding, will we regret not trying when my anticipated departure is delayed?
We decided to follow our own advice to stop planning and start executing.

MELISSA AND ANDY WERE MARRIED THIS PAST FRIDAY (June 15th).  Such a nice turn of events.  The wedding was held in the evening at the Detroit Golf Club and we are happy to share some photographs of the evening.


Yes, we planned and pulled off a wedding in less than three weeks - just another demonstration that you can do anything you set your mind to baby.
