If you're reading this journal, may this announcement that I'm about to make be the best news you hear all year long.

I've hidden something away now for the greater part of a month and a half, maybe more like a month. I'm writing this on my phone so I'm not going to take much time.

I invested in a Christmas gift that I gave to my beautiful girlfriend of two years, about to be three in January. And on December 24th, the magic of Christmas wasn't the only air stirring on a slightly blistering cold and breezy night.

We traveled to Center Street in front of a lit Christmas tree...

And that was where I got down on my knee and, albeit choked it out in the rush of emotion, I asked for her to make this Christmas and many more to come, the best Christmases of our lives... And unveiled the precious diamond ring I had saved up.

We're Engaged, FA! Shadow Wolf and Raine Redwing are now going to be married.
