The weekend of Val’s birthday, December 5th, 2015 to be exact, is a day they will never forget…! Pierre hosted a birthday party for Valerie at their new home in  Avon, MA. There were a few pleasant surprises during the party such as the surprise attendance of some unanticipated family and friends; however, the best part was left for last.

Towards the “closing” of the party Pierre began thanking family and friends for their support specifically thanking those who

helped orchestrate the party (amidst some key hecklers - Omar!). At that moment, it all happened. Pierre got down on one knee and popped the question!!  The crowd went wild...aahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

...And through Valerie’s tears of surprise and delight, she gladly said

YES!
