One year ago, our prayers were answered as Gary asked me to be his wife and I said, "Yes!" He romantically waited until her Feast Day as this had been our intention during the novena. What a day that was...He wanted to surprise me, and boy did he ever!
I love you, Sweetheart!
And now one year later, our intentions for the novena were quite different, but beautiful to receive answers on this special day! We received more clarity about how God is leading us and received great news about those we've been offering this novena for as well. And finally our dear friends Tyler and Dene' Rosser are NOW MARRIED! We've been praying for a beautiful wedding and marriage for them full of peace and joy.
As for our celebrations today, we're off to noon Mass (during Gary's lunch hour) and then a quick visit to Tropical Smoothie for a bite to eat, where we ate a year ago before he proposed. Of course a visit to the chapel to top off the night, to thank Our Lord for His choicest blessings.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us!
What a sweet post! It is so nice to find a Catholic blog :) God Bless you both on your anniversary.
