Thankfully the rain slowed down and cleared up some… but as soon as we got downtown it started AGAIN. My plans were falling apart. The baseball game was canceled and we were left sitting in the back of the rover ( I was sweating it out trying to come up with a backup plan if the fireworks were a no-go).

Do I look nervous?

FINALLY… the lights in the ballpark go out… and the fireworks started.  Tried to hold off until the finale, but couldn’t…

and she said yes :)

Harder to take a picture in the moment than I anticipated...ha

Reese is definitely out of my league… I still have no idea how I got so lucky!

I’m sure my fly fishing hobby addiction is frustrating sometimes… but I’m workin’ on getting her hooked too:)

If you look close you can see the surprise on her face as she's getting a strike

Classic face...

She’s definitely my best catch!
