With this news, you know we’re gonna want to follow you thru your engagement, right?!

When is the big day?

I'll let DU know when we've set a definite date.

I know it was a fast romance and proposal, but when the heart speaks, one listens and we both listened.

since the post about your upcoming 'first date'---
but seems you've been busy in the meantime!

My sincere congratulations !!!!

You hear of love at first sight and, in this instance, it really was.

you for sharing your joyous news with us!

Does your lady know that you come with a whole group of EXTREMELY nosy friends, who will want alll sorts of details?

We also want wedding pics

I have pics of my son's wedding in his dress uniform. He looked sharp.

Dress Blues altered to compensate for the extra pounds I've put on since retiring from the Corps.

Or evening walks with your fiancee.

Your a Marine, if you can get through boot camp you can do it. I have faith in you.

Just in case get those dress blues altered.
My favorite pics of my son are from when he was in the corps.

Thanks for chatting with me. It broke up my evening caring for my son.

Du has the best people. Wishing you and your lovely lady many years of joy and happiness.

both a long and happy marriage.

May the days ahead be filled with love, laughter and joy.

Congratulations!

I am happy for the both of you!

That's also a big step. There's a lot to think about. Who's house etc. type stuff. Big wedding or small? Pulling out all the stops? How life can change in one month. Wow, wow. Wow.

🥂💐🥂

I am very happy to hear that news!!!!!!!!! Second marriages are the best!!!!!!! In many cases the first marriage, I call
a Practice Marriage.....LOL
Have a joyous life together, full of fun and endearing times!

So happy for you and your intended!

Nice for your bride that you will not be on the road so much too.

Wish you years of peace and happiness.

The last time I smiled was at GreatAuntofTriplets’ thread about one of the triplets getting into med school.

Happy for MCE.

First time in a long time and saw Hail Mary with Ryan Gosling cute feel good movie. Those are the kind of things we need to do.

I feel like every day we are washed in dirty mucky chemical filled stinky water, need to rinse off!

I get this, but admit to enjoying some circuses as the bread is stale and mouldy:

May you have many years of happiness together!

Sounds like a fairytale romance. Wishing you and your future wife the best.

Congratulations!

Are you still driving those trucks?

I wish you many years with your beloved and as much joy as your heart can stand!

So very happy for you 🎉🎊👏🥳🍾

I'm very, very, very, very happy for you.

There is a lot of beauty in this world. There is a lot worth fighting for.

Had I some vodka, I'd do one with you. Just accept this one in spirit. Spirit spirits.

Congratulations.

May you have many years of happiness, and may each year be better than the last.

I'm so happy for you.


MR

I’m somewhat envious of the lightning speed of your love story. My husband and I were a couple for 4 years before he was ready to take a second chance on marriage. Understandable, as it was a nasty divorce, but it was a long wait. First time around for me.

All the best to both of you!

I am so glad you found your partner in life.

🥳🎉🎊

Extremely happy for you both!

Congratulations. Wishing you and the soon-to-be bride all the happiness in the world.

Congratulations and the best of luck to the both of you.

Skål!!!

My partner and I were engaged end of August last year in Honolulu.

2nd's for both of us as well.

A new day, a new life. What a heartwarming thing love is. My best to both of you.

Congratulations!

you MCE. Wishing you many years of love and laughter .

You both should only know health and happiness together!!

Celebrate😀

Very exciting!

My second marriage is hitting 34 years next month. Also a whirlwind romance.

Congrats!!!

Congratulations . I just thought of you today MCE. Well your granddaughter to be more precise. Hope her job is going well.

I am really happy for you .

I wish you nothing but happiness.

One knee, oh that's a corny marine move.

Really though,

CONGRATS MCE,

wow. I want pictures of the wedding!

My best and warmest wishes are heading your way!

That’s NOT “corny”, my friend.

That’s gallant, impressive, breathtaking, and a whole lotta fabulous!!!

WELL DONE, sir. WELL DONE!!!

And lots of congratulations to the nice lady.

Sometimes it just the right thing to do . . . good on both of you for recognizing this is one of those times!!!

You've managed to show that a little light can shine through.

Congratulations!

I thought you might consider an older lady, someone with roots going back to World War Two, Swing Music, chocolates and stockings on a date.

Oh well… guess I’m still single and looking.



Congratulations and save me a dance on your special day.

I remember my mother, born in 1922, telling me that if young ladies didn’t have stockings with seams they would use eyebrow pencils to draw faux seams on their legs.

Getting those lines straight must have been tricky, or maybe they helped each other out.

Exciting stuff.

WOW! happy for you both!! If you need another reason to hug her, there are thousands here saying GIVE HER A HUG from us!!! LOL Best of luck to BOTH of you!!

Congratulations and much happiness to both of you! And, of course, thanks for your service!

to you, and tell her "best wishes" from all of us!

It sounds like you got a far more enthusiastic response to your proposal than I did to mine, which was the German equivalent to "works for me."
