Jennifer has agreed to be my wife!

Filed under: — Mark @ 12:55 pm

I love Jennifer more than I have ever loved anyone. She puts up with my weaknesses, cares incredibly deeply for me and my family and has been my best friend for the past few years we have been dating. We have had our differences, our fights, our misgivings and in spite of all that is different about us, we cannot imagine life without each other.

So, this past Christmas Eve I asked Jennifer, my girlfriend of three years, to marry me and she agreed. My parents have helped me choose the ring and I had planned to ask her around Christmas time this year. We hope to get married sometime around late 2006.

The Proposal

Even though it was nothing fancy, I did get her a big package with a small ring in it and everyone was full of smiles and hugs. It was a great evening. I had to kneel! :D
The Ring

My parents (and her family) are more than ecstatic. We have no real plans for the wedding yet but hope to get there by late 2006. Nothing big or fancy, just a few people in at St. Adalbert and maybe a nice celebration in India (if I can make it back home).
Here is a link to the gallery with all the pictures.

  7. Mark and Jennifer,
    ARE YOU NUTS? LMAO! Just kidding! Mark, you are a great guy, full of warmth, compassion, and generosity of spirit. Knowing that Jennifer will be your “better half” says a lot about her as a person. I am very happy for the two of you, and I wish you many years of happiness together. Some day I hope to be able to meet you both in person and eat all of your food. :)

    All the best to you both.

  16. Sorry I am late to this party, but my wife Heather and I just wanted to add to the well wishing. There is no greater joy, or harder work than being married.

    Welcome to the Party in 2006!
