A man of his word, Acho made the surprise trip to Delmonte's high school in Purcellville, Virginia, to formally ask her. If you can't tell by the photo below, she was a wee-bit excited.
Trip from TX:VA= $500
2 nite stay= $350
Rental 🚗= $100

I think I should take a personal day tomorrow and not go to school so I can recuperate from the heart attack I had on Friday
