Lexi is Engaged to be Married!

July 4
I'm pretty sure Lexi knew the proposal was coming but didn't know when, where or how.  And I certainly don't think she expected it to happen on this holiday.  The day started out with our family having breakfast over at Shawn's home with his family.  It was delicious and very filling!...so we decided to play a wild game of Kickball at the park to work it off.  This was quite entertaining to say the least...Rob calling Lenny an "old man" and then he (Rob) falls to the ground writhing in pain with a muscle cramp!  Who's the old man?! Ha!  It was great fun but we were really hot and sweaty so decided to go swimming back at our house and have a bbq later in the day.

Lexi knew that Shawn had been working on something that day and it had to do with a scavenger hunt.  But she thought it was a date...just more fun time together.  After dinner, Shawn gave her the first clue...
...and then she had to figure out where to go to find the next clue.  They all had to do with dates they had been on while dating.  Some of the places were Chilis, Temple Square, tennis courts, and our house.  The last clue took her to the new airport where Shawn was waiting for her.  He played their favorite song and they danced.  She still didn't realize that it wasn't just a "date"...until he got down on one knee, pulled out the ring and asked her to marry him!  Of course she said YES!!!


Lexi will marry Shawn Wallace Jones on September 10, 2011 (9/10/11)  in the St. George Temple.  Congrats you two!
