If you could have only seen the look on her face when she saw the last page of the book where it said “Will You Marry Me?”!!! WOW!!! I barely got to see the look as she covered her face with her hands and boo-hooed like crazy, but I caught a glimpse of a huge smile and a huge glow that I’ll never forget. That alone made all of this preparation and effort worthwhile. I have to thank everyone involved for keeping this a secret and helping me throughout the entire planning. All of you have been so supportive and encouraging as Crystal and I have both made this huge decision in our lives. We are both blessed with amazing sets of family and friends that enrich our lives every single day and I thank God for all of you.
That little ring on her finger shows what a blessed and happy man that I am to have her in my life. I love that girl. 🙂
After I finally looked up at you, I was just in awe of how endearing your sweet eyes looked as you gazed down upon me. I immediately felt so adored by you….I love you.
Awwwwwwww.
That’s my fiance, people! Mine! 😀
I think I finally realized why you made a website for this. In about 7 years from now when you are both caught up in life and kids are hanging from the rafters, you can say, “See we used to be mushy and all sappy,what happened?”. hehe of course I’m kidding.
Shane the proposal was very creative and cool. But, coming from you I wouldn’t have expected anything less. Crystal is awesome and the both of you seem to accent the others talents and ambition. By keeping God in your lives you will not only be able to walk through life with guidance, he will bless you far beyond your creative imagination.
I’ve always been extremely proud of you jabbo. I was thinking the other day about how you used to have to carry that rock around in Aiki-Jujitsu. As part of the training that rock became your partner, as well as an instrumental part of a great lesson. Your patience and determination led you to not only open your eyes to life, look what has become of that rock. It has been replaced by a beautiful Crystal.
The Lord does amazing things. Congratulations kids, I love you and wish you both the best.
dad
Yeah…it’s on her finger!!! hahaha 😀
Seriously though, thank you for the kind words, thoughts, and prayers. Your support means the world to me (us) and I can’t wait to make you a proud
papawfather-in-law!!! 8)I hadn’t really thought about how a lot of that training molded my character, but you’re right. All of that will surely make what lies ahead seem like a cake walk!!! 😀
Shane,
You have always been creative, and I know for a fact that marriage and children have been a dream of yours since I’ve known you which has been twelve years or better! You did great! Shes fantastic and who better for a fantastic man. Your wedding will be the day you remember for the rest of your life and remember that a perfect wedding is bad luck! They lost my ring, our Grooms cake collapsed and the DJ messed up the wedding party announcement but we have those memories to look back on and laugh. Shane and I have had problems but God has stepped in everytime and rescued us! You guys will never forget your day!
Sarah has talked about you as a great friend and I hate that i have never met you. Congratulations on your big day and let me say you blew my proposal away!!! Your wife is gorgeous and not to sound to gay, you guys look like the all american couple! Goodluck and I hope the two of you are as happy as Sarah and me. If we can make it through me being in the military and constantly being gone, you guys are gonna be great! Sarah’s taught me alot about God and hes on your side too. Just keep your faith! Thats what she always tells me! Congratulations!!!
Thank you so much, Shane & Sarah! Hearing everything you all went through at your wedding gives me some comfort knowing that you both made it through and are still together. 😉 Thank you, both, for the words of encouragement about the wedding and keeping God on our side. Life is about to get twice as fun! 😉
