Congrats!

And it is especially nice that they are not waiting 1 - 1 1/2 years for the wedding day.
(Once we decided to get married, I think it was about 3 months until it happened.)

Then he surprised her completely by having about 40 friends and family at his apartment with hot chocolate, symores and other goodies, to celebrate the event. Wedding to be in the spring.

BTW, Nathan has passed my rigorous interview process with background checks and all. He had met with Lauren's mother and me about three weeks earlier.

Praise the Lord my Brother and congradulations!

Thanks, and I agree, since they are 23 and 24, and have been courting for about a year, I see no reason to wait.

They both have graduated and have excellent professional jobs, Lauren is a RN, and Nathan is a graphic artists, and they both believe the Lord has affirmed their future together.

We are very happy with their relationship.

Congratulations to you all! Sounds like you have found you one great son-in-law. Thanks for sharing the wonderful news!

How exciting! I love the way he proposed to her.

Wow,

My daugther was married Sat. April 25, it was a beautiful day in so many ways.
I will post pictures in a few days.

The funniest thing, the wedding was outdoors under a big white tent, with about 300 guests. The bridal party walked over water on an arched bridge. Problem is that the week of the wedding a Canada Goose lays three eggs at the end of the bridge, three days before the wedding. The male, they mate and stay together their whole lives, was on duty protecting his mate and the nest. Just as the bridesmaids and groomsmen begin exiting the bridge, the photographer is shooting pictures and the gander goes airborne just over his head. The whole tent cracks up laughing. No contact, but these are huge birds and is very intimidating when they are right on top of you. Fortunately the bridal party was not harmed nor was the wedding.
