It's Official!

My oldest son, Dustin, has lived with Sherrie and her daughter Cassidy for about 7 years, and of course, we have loved them just as long. They have suffered through years of speculation and questioning about when they would get married; I guess the answer has always been, in their own sweet time. Recently, they went on a family hike and Dustin surprised Sherrie with a proposal and a ring that he had hidden in a pair of socks in his back pack. He also presented Cassidy with a necklace that held 2 diamonds, each to represent her parent's love. We are very excited, but Cassidy most of all. Although we could not love her any more than we do, she says she just is sooo happy to know that it is "official". She of course has already planned the whole ceremony and what everyone will wear:). We are so happy that Dustin was fortunate enough to find the love of his life and a beautiful daughter as part of that union, and know that they are lucky to have him too. I just love this picture of Sherrie and Cassidy looking over the green valley below their hike.
