Engaged!

Just wanted to share the good news …

Next up, I’ll be traveling to St. Louis for the All Star Game. I’m playing in the celebrity softball game on Sunday. I hope I don’t embarrass myself too much. I played as a kid but that’s it. I’ve been practicing!

Thanks for all of your support and congratulations.

The Office

Another student made the comment “you need to push it in further” (innocent comment) and Dalton added “that’s what she said.”
