I had no idea but Dean was planning a holiday proposal. He asked me to marry him after a lovely dinner at the Old Stone restaurant in Belmont, NC.<br />It was so romantic and sweet. I said yes of course.<br />He presented me with a gorgeous diamond solitaire engagement ring. I was knocked out by how pretty and sparkly it was. When we went outside the white Christmas lights on the trees on Main St. in Belmont and the bright stars on the clear black sky made the night complete magic.<br />Now we have to set the date. Any ideas?<div style='clear:both; text-align:LEFT'><a href='http://picasa.google.com/blogger/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ;

I (Julie) will add photos to this blog when I figure out how to do it!<br /><br />We aimed the new Accord for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Weaverville</span> and enjoyed a pleasant ride on a sunny very warm day. Bernice had prepared a delicious lunch of Chinese tacos. Yum! We had a nice visit with Jewel, Brian and his girlfriend Tonya.<br /><br />I have lots of pictures of this day, especially nice ones at the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">cemetery</span>. I will fill in the blog with details about the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">cemetery</span> later when I get the photo issue <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">resolved</span>.<br /><br />When we got back to Bernice's house we sang happy birthday to Dean and had coconut cake and ice cream. Happy Birthday Dean!!!<br /><br />I am selling my townhouse on Monday and have been very excited to stop paying a mortgage on a place I haven't been living in.<br /><br />Also, Thursday I had a Facet Joint injection which required sedation so I have sort of been down for the count since then.<br /><br />More later--see Julie's bog <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Myindigosea</span> for more from me.<br /><br />Dean will add to this blog soon. He has been very busy at work!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/159544606515922208-3215604618113461526?l=toomanykingsmountain.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Julie Stanton and Dean Welchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05322547857693718626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-159544606515922208.post-88308913841317271122007-07-06T16:01:00.000-07:002007-07-06T16:14:00.711-07:00Well <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Welch</span> and Stanton Families, Dean and Julie finally speak!<br />We are almost all settled in here. Our possessions and our lives are merging. Its amazing just how much "stuff" a couple of 46 year olds can accumulate. We are realizing that some of the stuff we have been carrying around is better gotten rid of.<br />So we discard and merge continuously condfident that what will emerge will be better than what we had individually.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/159544606515922208-8830891384131727112?l=toomanykingsmountain.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Julie Stanton and Dean Welchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05322547857693718626noreply@blogger.com1
