Just Another Perfect Day . . . and a Celebration

Yesterday was an amazingly beautiful day with a fittingly beautiful conclusion -- when Justin (our younger son) and Claui (his significant other for the past five or six years) came up for dinner, they brought several bottles of prosecco for a celebration -- because they just got engaged!

No wedding date, no plans just yet . . . Claui has been a dearly-loved member of the family for some time now -- a ceremony won't change anything.

But what fun to celebrate this next step with them, here on a magical spring day!
