He'll trade his fiance for a blonde, then sell that one to a guy in Chi-town that has a girl from Texas with a nice pair, then that girl will get traded for a dude with a hot sister which will only last for a day until he sells the dude for some twins from New York.

Congrats Chris! Marriage is awesome if you find the right person that wants to be with you for being you! I'm still shocked at how much Jeni is OK with with the car hobby, golf, camera gear etc. She supports everything I do and hopefully yours will do the same! Good for you man and welcome to the club!

You asked the parents?! So old school awesome. Congrats!

Congrats Chris! I also asked my wifes folks for their blessing before I proposed to my wife. I honestly think it was harder asking them for their blessing than actually getting down on one knee and proposing.

She was originally from Libertyville, IL before going to school at Marquette and is an ICU nurse for children's hospital. Her parents still live down there so we've gone back and forth a couple times. Was definitely more nerve racking asking the dad then Liz. It was pretty funny though cause the mom and dad were very excited and he gave me the absolutely answer rather than just the yes. Made me feel a lot better about the situation too. They are very old school as are my parents. Nows the fun time of starting to look for reception venues and food etc. Already have the church since it was a year and a half out for reserving it.

Headed to the airport now to head home. So sad but we are drained. Always walked everywhere we went. Even from downtown hotel to lake union and back. Was awesome though to see everything.

I did get to see the Tesla dealership. Was pretty cool.

(organizing pics, they will be back up in a sec)

Some pics. I just asked a random person to take our photo, and I told the guy what I wanted to do so he helped. They aren't professional by any means, but atleast it helped capture the moment. I really tried to do pork's idea of having a photographer follow us around, but at this place, the trails are so tight and private, and it was NOT a busy place at all, that it would have been completely obvious what that person was trying to do.



She may not look happy in this photo because after having picked a spot previously on the website, it was filled with a group of 20 asian tourists all taking rediculously stupid photos, and the water was all dirty, so it didn't look as good as I would have thought. So I faked having to go to the restroom and we walked the mile back to the house where I did it on the back patio of this mansion on this whole estate. Pics don't do the drop justice unfortunately. We walked everywhere on this trip, and the loop around the estate was 2.5 miles. So yeah, our legs were tired

















Had some roses and chocolate covered strawberries delivered for when we got back. Even got a letter from Fairmont Olympic general manager thanking us for including them in on our "special day", haha

And of course, a little drinky drink to celebrate
