Time's flying.....
My last entry was about me courting the most wonderful Wendy Korthals. 89 days later, I took her out to a very nice Itailan Resturant and then to a park and finally after giving her a big hug and telling her how much I have appreciated our friendship, her love and our life together in courtship I asked, "Will you marry me?" After a brief look of shock I mentioned I had a ring for her and then she said, "Yes, I will." We were both very excited. It's so much fun seeing Wendy happy! :) :) :)
The offical word on the street: Michael T. Riley is engaged to Wendy M. Korthals. We are currently looking at a mid-November action (aka wedding), possibly the 18th.

Clearly the most important question here is this:
which Italian restaurant did you take her to?
oh... and congrats on the engagement too!

Good call buddy!
heres a hot tip:
Johnny's Italian Steakhouse is AMAZING! Its south of the Des Moines Airport on Fleur Ave. I took some guys from linden last summer, they all loved it.
