Shannan and John called last night. They got engaged in Chicago last weekend. It sounds like John did an excellent job of surprising Shannan with the ring. No details on the wedding yet, but they hope to get married at the end of the summer (before John starts the school year - he'll be up for tenur and expects it to be a pretty hectic year). Most people I've told have asked me if I was shocked or surprised or anything like that... and I'm not at all. I'm 1000% happy and excited for them and knew it was just a matter of time before they made the announcement. So many, many, many congratulations to them; Stepan and I are looking forward to going to Ann Arbor for the wedding.
