My brother is engaged!! It is so weird but very special. He proposed to (of course) Lauren in a very romantic way and had quite a few people involved in the plan. Kathryn Jaroski, Mom and I were taking pictures of them, we went down this little road and what do you know all the siblings were there. We handed Lauren flowers (tulips), Tim read a letter (about her eyes) and Luke said a prayer. They got into a canoe and went to another spot where the Grandparents were. They gave her flowers (sunflowers) read a letter, and said a prayer, the next spot was the Mentors spot where Mr. Adcock, Mr. Anderson, and Little Bear Wheeler were there. The did the same thing, (the flowers were carnations) They canoed a little farther and went to the friends spot...there were a lot of people there and can't name them all, but I know 2 of them were friends of Laurens from Maryland and Washington, Emily Lewis and Megan Watkins. One of the last spots was the Parents spot. They handed her flowers (Lillie's) and read a letter (about purity) and the Dad's prayed. The last and final spot was the proposal spot. Caleb had it all set up with lanterns in the trees, a heart carved into a tree, a letter with a rose from him to her and then of course the GORGEOUS ring. (I'll try to get a picture of that up in future posts)
I have such a romantic brother!! They are the cutest couple ever and I pray the God will bless them.
Here are some pictures of before the canoe trip, the Parents spot and of the proposal spot! Sorry if the pics are out of order, they're sort of backwards. =( God Bless,
