Engaged.
Well, I've been home for almost two months now. I haven't really had the inclination (or the time) to blog. I thought it might be nice, though, to update this site with some very important information (in my life anyway).
Shawn Matthew Groen asked me (officially) to be his wife on February 4th, after attending a Toronto Symphony Orchestra concert in Toronto. We hopped a fence at the Legislative Building in Queen's Park and he got down on one knee under the gorgeous, Oxford-like stone arches of the front entrance.
We don't have a date set for the actual wedding as of yet. We are currently getting mixed advice from family and friends and, therefore, are just waiting on the Lord for His timing. Please keep us in your prayers, if you would. We would GREATLY appreciate it!
It was wonderful to share the news with our closest family and friends this weekend. What an amazing community we've been blessed with. Praise the Lord for his awesome faithfulness!
