marriage proposal

We were sitting in Charlie Browns restaurant (my favorite) a few days before christmas. It was Me, Frank, Murray and Mary. In the middle of our meal, Murray blurts out...."Next year me and Mary are getting married and I am moving into her house." We just sat there, looking at Murray for what seemed like minutes when it probably was seconds, with our mouths open and the fork suspended in midair. Mary later said she almost choked on her salad.
When we were able to speak, we probably said something stupid like..."Oh, yeah?" Then Murray went on to say that they weren't having a big wedding but were going to Costa Rica or Hawaii, possibly in Feb. Mary said that she had never dreamed of a big wedding. I told Frank later that she was probably just relieved that Murray decided to make that committment, which has been a big problem with Murray. In the past, the girls would push and he would run...fast and far. So maybe this means that it is the real thing...hope so!
Sorry, Leanne about the postage...forgot the rates went up. :-) AP

How exciting! Hey, at least he committed. Where is it written..."Thou must have a large church wedding.."?
