at 4:30 this afternoon  Diane and I  got a text from Max saying he was “going for it”.. took me a second to figure out what he meant.. but when I did, it made me so happy. Max proposed to is long time GF Becky in the Sant Fe dog park. Gabe was I in own for Becky’s 40th birthday party that is tonight and helped Max by filming the whole thing and helping them celebrate . .  Max presented becky with the gold ring he’d made himself (3d printed, lost wax cast gold and aquamarine stone)  .,, and Becky said YESSSS !..  

They are a really amazing match. both crazy smart, creative and adventurous. It has been so much fun watching them build a life together for these last 8 years. They are constantly working on projects together and they have wonderfully complimentary skills whether its building exhibits for burning man or moving walls, doors and windows around their house.   We love Becky’s family too.. 

We are so excited to be welcoming Becky  and her family into our own crazy  family officially.. even though she’s already been a part of our  family for a good long time.

Max and Beck,, congratulations .. We love you both so much !

nite all, nite sam
