Here are the infamous engagement photos :) Ryan completely surprised me....and I"m very happy to be a McKeown.

We first took a trip through Millennium Park with Colleen and Alex. Big kudos to the Szathmarys for their AMAZING photo skills.

Here is us by the 'Bean'

At the Chicago Art Institute (inside the museum)

Colleen!

At this point I'm thinking Ryan just really likes art and wanted a photo!

Apparently he had other ideas... Right now he is saying wonderful things like "Alisha, from the moment of our first kiss I knew one day I would propose to you. I love you. Will you marry me?" And I'm saying, "Are you serious?"

Then he pops open the sparkle!

I say "yes"

Still dazzled by all the sparkle

Here is the sparkle! It is absolutely amazing.

The painter and painting that brought it all together. The entire room clapped for us when I said yes.

Kiss to put a seal on it.

Engaged couple post happy moment

We are camera hogs

A tRyan attempts the dubious task of lifting his future bride

Awwww!

Then he drops me or "gently puts me down"

Toast... we are both confused as to where we should be looking

So we decide to look at each others' ugly mugs

THE END!
