Engaged

On July 22, at about 2pm, I finished reading Deathly Hallows on a beautiful green Virginia vineyard lawn.  At the same time, Devin (Uilnslcoap on the Quill), came out of the house, took my hand, and asked me to take a walk with him.  Eager to discuss the book and too elated to be suspicious, I followed him down the river walk to a little clearing

This is the best thing I've read since the book. So, so, so many congratulations!

[arabellasq]

Aw... thank you for saying that. It's so nice to know I can come here and share the news with you all, even though I'm not a regular poster.

I admit I got a little teary-eyes when I hear your wonderful news. Congratulations!!

[arabellasq]

That is so sweet. Thank you so much.

I don't think I've ever had this much fun thanking people!

[divinemum]

Congratulations, Arabella!!!!

Many huge, chocolate-covered wishes of happiness for you and Devin.

Thank you, Doris!

Arabella, that's so very wonderful. I don't know WHERE my brain was on the phone. I totally assumed that 'Yeah, of course she's getting married. Duh.' Like, R/H will get together. It's inherently obvious to the most superficial reader. ;)

(oh, this is Molly on my other LJ name.)

Ah, the snarking will never quite lose its shine now, will it?

Thank you, Molly!!

Congratulations!! What an absolutely wonderful proposal story!!

And the two of you look so happy in your picture. Wishing you much happiness over all your sunlit years together!

[arabellasq]

Thank you so much! That he made sure it would make a good story is part of why I know he's the guy for me. Stories are my crax. :)
