I’ve had this post ready to go for a while. I guess maybe I’ve been saving it for a special occasion – and now I have one. Hope some of these pics will make you go “WHOA”!
Taylor called and invited Ben, Dub and me to his house for dinner Saturday evening. He said he was going to grill petite filet mignons and steam king crab legs. He’s an excellent cook so we were excited about it. He said Caleb and Isaiah would be there and crab legs are Isaiah’s favorite food.
When we got there, we knew something was up because all three of them were absolutely beaming. Dinner was delicious and as we finished eating, Taylor said “Isiah. Would you like to tell them our news?” Isaiah was grinning from ear-to-ear and blurted out “Taylor asked Dad and me to marry him and we said ‘Yes'” There were smiles and hugs all around. To make a long story short, they asked me to perform the ceremony… Ben to be Caleb’s best man (Alex will be Taylor’s)… and Dub to be their wedding planner. We quickly agreed. There was some discussion about when (and where) the ceremony might take place. Dub was strangely quiet but we could just see the wheels turning in his head. After a while, he said “Everyone will be here for Father’s Day so maybe we could do it then. It could be outside at Hawks nest on Saturday evening and maybe Alex can make the fountains all the colors of the rainbow.” They loved the idea, so, that’s the plan.
The guys told us they’ve been spending almost all their time together since last November and just decided it was time to make it “official.” Isaiah is so excited he’s about to pee down his leg. There’s a lot to get done in the next couple of weeks (bow ties, suspenders, rings, decorations, flowers, music, food etc.) but we’re confident “Dub the wedding planner” will make sure everything is perfect. We’ll keep you posted. xoxo David and Ben
