Love is in the Air at James Hill!

Valentine's Day in James Hill was extra-special for soon-to-be residents Jason Fill and Emily McManus!

Just after lunch on Valentine's Day, Emily had planned a couple's massage for her and Jason at the Ross Bridge Spa. After their royal treatment at the spa, they headed over to James Hill to take some pictures of the appliances in their almost finished home.

Emily noticed a few lights on in the home when they pulled up, but just assumed they had been left on after their orientation walk-through the day before. When Jason and Emily walked into the front door of their future home together, Emily noticed a dozen red roses, a bucket of champagne, and two champagne flutes on the kitchen counter. Jason turned to her and wished her a Happy Valentine's Day, and on the way to the kitchen, they stopped in the middle of the living room and embraced each other, talking about how much they love each other. Emily wanted to see the roses, but Jason wanted to savor the moment, so they stood there just a little longer.

Finally making their way to the kitchen, Jason held Emily, kissed her and told her again how much he loves her. As he dropped to one knee (or as Emily sees it, knelt down in slow motion :-)), she asked if he was serious, and when he said yes, she immediately grabbed him around the neck and knelt down on the floor with him before he could even ask. Together in their new kitchen, Jason asked Emily if she would marry him, and Emily replied "YES!" as tears of joy ran down her face!

Below is an excerpt from Emily about the proposal:

"Being that we had been together all day, I wondered how/who put the beautiful flowers and champagne in the house. Chrissy, the Customer Care coordinator with Signature had been working with Jason as to how to get everything in line for the proposal. Allen, one of the builders, had purchased the flowers, and Tarayn and Whitney from the James Hill Sales Center were so sweet to bring in the champagne and glasses and set everything up. What a wonderful day in a wonderful place! We LOVE James Hill!"
Congratulations, Jason and Emily! We are glad that we could be a part of your special day!

Jason and Emily close on their new home this Friday and plan to get married sometime this year!
