On Christmas Eve, we held an Open House for family and friends. Getting the table set up before people arrive.
The Shrimp Remoulade Amuse~Bouche was a hit.
At the end of the night, when there were just a few family and friends left, David had a special surprise for Liz.
There was a smaller box inside this box
David bought this a month ago in DC, somehow hid it from Liz, smuggled it on the airplane in his backpack (with a few intense moments going through airport security)
All Liz could say was “Oh MY GOD!”
Shedding a few tears
A BIG Platinum Princess cut diamond ring
She was so shocked!
She couldn’t believe David hid it from her all this time
Passing the ring around for all to see
Liz still in shock
It was a wonderful Christmas Eve!

Your dining table looked great! Love the blue and white! Looks like everyone had a good time. I just love the look on Liz's face when she finds that ring! What a sweet surprise.
Hope you have a great day, and a Happy New Year! Beth. :)
First - you did a great job with the decorations and festivities.
Second - He knows. Yes, David knows how wonderful Liz is to be the wife, friend, and soldier that she is. He knows and that makes all she has endured worth it. So glad he knows. Love! xoxo
What a sweetheart! We'd love to see a close-up of the pretty ring! Liz and David are so very lucky to have each other!
That Dave is something else! We do indeed need to see the ring.
Your table looked so nice for Christmas Eve.
I got tears in my eyes seeing those pictures of your daughter opening that gift. Looks like your family had an absolutely amazing Christmas and everything looked beautiful!!
Happy New Year!
I love the table setting, and the joy of the ring.
PS I live in Mississippi
One more comment: Liz looks so Kate Spade in her outfit. I love the brightly colored tights this year!! Love them. Oh, to be 20ish again with her legs ;-) xoxo
Everything looks so wonderful but Liz and David home look the best. What a wonderful surprise for her. She is the best.
