Last Wednesday Amanda and her boyfriend Jerrod got engaged. Jerrod had it all planned out and invited all the family to be there to watch so Lauren, Mom, Cooper and myself all made the trip to Houston Wednesday afternoon. They picked me up at my office and we met everyone at the restaurant where Jerrod was planning everything about 7:30. Amanda thought she was going out with her friend Lauren for a girls night out. She called me that day to tell me about everything they had planned for the night. There were about 20 of us at the restaurant and Jerrod rented out the party room so we all stood against the wall as Lauren and Amanda walked in about 8 because Amanda thought they were just going to have dinner. She was shocked and she just stood there with her mouth open and was wondering what was going on. Then Jerrod walked in behind her and started his long speech which had everyone in the room in tears. It was so sweet and then he got on one knee and asked Amanda and she said yes. It was such an exciting thing to be a part of. She was not expecting to see us that night she couldn't believe we drove all that way. I could tell she was so glad everyone came to be a part of her special night. We drove back afterwards so it was a late night but it was well worth it. Wedding plans are underway now and I think they are planning a fall wedding which is so exciting. Here are some pictures from the big proposal.
