She Said Yes!

One year ago today, I kneeled down and asked Amber to marry me. She felt sorry for me and said yes!

Half A Year Of Marriage

This morning, Amber and I looked out the window and saw a white winter wonderland. She had the day off so we took our time waking up. After a Bible study time together (which isn't easy for us to schedule on weekday mornings) we bundled up and played in the snow for a while. At one point, my wife looked at me with her pretty smile and said "Happy 6-month anniversary!"


Amber and I got married on July 10 and we were the first (and currently the only) couple to be wed in a newly-constructed area of our church called Fellowship Square. The whole thing went by so fast...literally. It was a Saturday and our church had to prepare for its regularly scheduled evening services so we were given a total of about 4 hours for the ceremony, reception and clean-up! After Amber and I drove away in my '95 Ford Taurus getaway car, we went to Taco Bell. (We hadn't had much time to stop and enjoy the food at our own reception.) The reaction from the lady at the drive-thru window was priceless. "Ahhhh, congratulations!" Smiling, we said thanks and I secretly hoped the woman would give us the food for free. No seƱor. Our first purchase as man and wife was a bean burrito and a large drink.


That was a great day. Today was also a great day and we spent every moment together. I believe God made us for each other and He's greatly blessed us. After half a year of marriage, I'm glad I married Amber.

New Place

Yes, Amber and I now have a place to live! Spent the day moving her things into our new apartment. Two more weeks and we'll be married!

Engaged!

Yesterday, in front of both of our families, I asked Amber to be my wife and she said yes! I'll never forget Easter Sunday 2010. How great God is!

Helloo

Good morning! Today is my 23rd birthday. God is so good! It started snowing about this time yesterday and didn't stop til after I fell asleep last night. Even late evening looked fairly bright because of all the ice. Today everything is covered and apparently two of my church's service times have been canceled for the weekend. Funny thing is that on my 13th birthday (has it really been a decade?) it snowed, and, being a Sunday, church services were canceled then, too. If memory serves, my family had lasagna, then cake and watched a movie called The Haunting.

Ten years later I'm sharing a house with three guys, who are some of my best friends. Right now I'm sitting on my roommate's floor typing this out on a Mac laptop. To my right is a blue Rainforest Cafe mug (a gift from my lovely girlfriend Amber). Previously it contained some coffee but that's gone now :). It is a good day.

More to come later.
