Engagement Party in Motor City

Fifty friends and family gathered for this enjoyable celebration hosted by the fiancé's parents. We learned how to feather bowl and met a bunch of family and friends this weekend at Bath City Bistro!

We were really touched by the number of people who came, generously brought gifts, and shared heartfelt best-wishes to us, including several seminarians and a couple of priests. Most of his colleagues came as well - and joined in the bowling.

There was a mini car show in Mt. Clemens that night, so we walked around after the party. We joined his parents in opening gifts in the evening. I was completely moved! We received a bunch of our registry items, even though we didn't ask for gifts. There were many nice notes and cards - one of which we received three times. The fiancé has already started the thank yous. The wedding is so much nearer. We've got just over 2 months now!
