We're Engaged!!


Only a year or so until we're Justin & Rebecca Harp! -with our kids Max & Moe Harp:)


Here's the story: It started out w/ Justin planning a whole week of fun prior to our engagement, making me breakfast every morning and picking me up for lunch every day.

But Saturday was the day, each part of the day was a suprise:

Beautiful outdoor gardens in the morning, a cute Italian place downtown for lunch, followed by private pottery lessons. We went home to change for a night of margarita (my fave!) tasting festival and dinner... to be followed by a proposal? But Justin wasn't sure if the night would be as special after a margarita tasting festival, so he nixed that idea.


Instead, a wonderful proposal at the apartment before dinner, followed by champagne. Justin joked that the champagne was Dom Perignon's half sister - funny but seriously good!


Afterwards, we went for pre-dinner drinks down at the Power & Light district then had an amazing dinner at a rooftop restaurant overlooking downtown KC and the plaza. Then we danced the night away... Perfect day - I miss it already!!


No dates are picked yet and we're starting to work out all the details, so we'll keep you all posted! We're excited to celebrate this happy time w/ all our family and friends:):)

Looks like Max and Justin are having loads of fun. Apparently, Rebecca was keeping Moe company and keeping her feet dry!
