You give birth to them - and then they leave.

That's what it feels like anyway.  You know what they say about time flying.... 

Drew is getting married - yep, leaving the nest.  He's engaged to cute, tiny, Rachel Shirey, a girl from right here in North Texas.  The big day will be March 28, 2009 in the Dallas Texas Temple.  We are excited for them!  

They asked me to take some photos of them, and though I'm not really a photographer, though I aspire to be and am working on it (thanks for the ideas Angela), we all headed to Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Plano for a photo shoot.  In the spring and summer it's a really pretty place. Not so much in January.  We made the best of it and had a great time!  


They look pretty cute together, don't they?

Wonder why they are smiling so much?

Of course Drew is still Drew.  Here is his Pee Wee Herman face! 

We had some pretty good laughs, too!

What do you think?  Is he marriage material?  Think long and hard, Rachel.

He's still my little boy...

In the end, we got some great shots.

And then headed home!

Congratulations to them and to you! The pictures look great, and Rachel looks like she'll fit in well with your family (especially if she can laugh through some of Drew's antics)!
