Nancy, Mina and the evergrowing smile... send 'em a congratulations!!

Yesterday we went down to the Millenium Park in Chicago.  Mrs. Elvis and I went along with another couple.  We'd been to Millennium Park before, but we had an event to attend that evening, and thought we'd spend the afternoon at Millennium, and then experience the new wing at the Art Institute of Chicago (future blogginses!).

As part of Millenium Park, the Lurie Gardens are set up to display the best of indigenous plantings for the Midwest.  It's a beautiful garden, and the perfect setting for beautiful things.  And that is precisely where we encountered Nancy & Mina.

They were chatting animatedly on one of the walking paths... (that's them in the upper right photo)... and she seemed excited... surprised... and yelling "How long have you known about this??    When did you figure this out??!?"... as we approached, we discovered that Nancy & Mina had just gotten engaged.... I mean JUST.  He had chosen the natural beauty of the Laurie Gardens to propose to his natural beauty and He had just proposed, as we approached... and she was about excited as she can get. 

I asked if they'd like a photo (cause as most of you other bloggers know, we don't go anywhere without a camera... right?), and I'd forward it to them.

They were excited and said "yes", as a camera was the one thing that hadn't been planned.  So I'm going to send them the photos above shortly to their e-mail address (which they provided).

I think it would also be a lot of fun, if all of the Realtors reading this blog would send hearty congratulations to Nancy & Mina too... at MJKaddis@gmail.com.
