Two Years

Two years ago today I got a surprise phone call which ended in my being engaged to the most amazing man. That was such an exciting time!

And now is even better, it is such a wonderful thing to be married to my best friend! God is good! I love you Graham!!

A Year Ago

Three hundred and sixty five days ago:) I saw my (then future) husband in person for the first time:). I can still remember driving into the airport parking lot late on June 9th with my parents and little brother and seeing my dear:) Graham standing just outside the airport terminal waiting for us. At the time we had been writing and calling for around four months. It was exciting, and I was nervous:):). We had a wonderful visit and at the end of it Graham asked if I could come up to Canada to meet his family. With my parents permission I said "yes!":) and my sister and I went up in August of last year. Graham and I were engaged in August and married (more wedding pictures here) three months later in November:).

On the front porch of my parents house in Florida:)

We don't have many pictures of that first visit, but here is one:). I couldn't have imagined that just one year later we would be married, eagerly awaiting the birth of our baby. The Lord has truly blessed us! I am so very thankful He brought Graham and I together; I could not ask for a better husband. :)

Beautiful Roses....

My wonderful husband gave me these a few days ago:). Brings back memories of other times when he has surprised me. When I (along with my sister) visited his family in Canada he was waiting for me at the airport with roses. Another time when we were courting, a surprise package arrived in the mail; upon opening it I discovered twelve gorgeous red roses:).....and that is just to name two of the times:).

I love you Graham! :) I am privileged to be your wife.

God is so Good

My handsome Fiancé:) and I
(This picture was taken around a week before we became engaged).


"I will bless the LORD at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together."

This love that God has given

"Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things." ~Psalm 72:18

(this picture doesn't do my beautiful engagement ring justice:)

A
fter a courtship lasting around five and a half months, (most of it being long distance as we live more than 2000 miles apart; the phone and email were put to good use:) the most amazing, and wonderful man named Graham asked me to marry him:):):) and I said "yes". That was one month ago today, and my heart is still filled with thanksgiving and praise to the Lord for His leading and great goodness in bringing Graham and I together. I can't believe how blessed I am, and yes, I am very excited and happy:).
