Emily is Engaged ! !

It is official. Benjamin Wright proposed to Emily Ray Hill on Friday evening, January 30, 2009. Ben surprised Emily. He arranged with Tammy to get everyone out of the house at 10:00 pm so he could watch a movie with Emily. Tammy made a bowl of popcorn and hid the ring box at the bottom. And now they are engaged. They will be married on April 23, 2009 in the Mt. Timpanogos Temple at 11:00 am. The reception will be the night before, on April 22, 2009 at the Provo Library. We are all very happy. Ben is very popular with all of us.
This the VERY beautiful ring that Ben gave Emily. This photograph does not do justice to how much the ring sparkles.

The day before the engagement Ben took me out to lunch to ask for her hand. In keeping with tradition we played golf. We went to the driving range and had a contest. Ben won on the last drive, by only about ten yards.


Ben is beaming after having won the hand of Emily in marriage.
