We’re so excited!
We are being blessed with another beautiful daughter-in-law!
Our son, Nick, proposed to his beautiful fiance, Liz, this past weekend.
So today’s little painting for #WorldWatercolorMonth is a diamond engagement ring.
It’s not nearly as beautiful as the real ring…
or the future bride-to-be…
or the smile on Nick’s face…
or the joy in my heart.
But it is a symbol
of a beautiful commitment
for a lifetime of love.
Nick created a beautiful “forever rose” from copper and metal as part of his engagement ring presentation.
And we enjoyed celebrating the happy couple – the new #McKinneytoBe this weekend!
Love you Nick and Liz! ❤
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
