Holy diamond mines Batman is that a ring?

Yes indeed Robin - that is a ring. But not just any ring. It's an engagment ring.

And so the story goes, when Pat proposed to Amanda a few short weeks ago - just days before Christmas.

Except Batman and Robin weren't really there. But we did have wine. And Amanda did say yes (Phew).

So please welcome Amanda to our family - much like you welcomed me on that fine day in July so many years ago when I was plucked from my mother's loins so that one day our family could have its own blog.

Thanks!

I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...
