He Asked Me to Marry Him

On a Sunday in September, Valeria and Diego come to the blue house for lunch, with big news and a ring. Say someone asked you to marry them, ask when and what someone said, say we wanted to tell you in person and we'd like you to be our sponsor, welcome someone to the family, and talk about engagements, rings, weddings, churches, guests and dresses.
