Counting down to forever...

Who knew that Facebook could actually connect people? Well it did! A friend request led to "likes", which highlighted commonality, that led to actual like. A friendship developed and blossomed into a romance which has now brought these soulmates to this turning point in their lives... They're getting married!!!

We went on an Eastern Caribbean cruise with family and friends. At the first formal dinner, as the photographer came around, Shaun asked him to take our picture at the winding staircase in the center of the room. When I reached the top of the stairs to turn around and pose, there was Shaun down on one knee! The room erupted with applause and warm wishes. We were even serenaded, given warm wishes, advice and Bible verses. As the night continued, with champagne flutes always in hand, we basked in the moment as we looked forward to our future.
