sunset at sunset

in case you haven't heard the news (thank you world of technology), drew 'engaged' me last saturday night when we were visiting camp lone star. it was perfect. it was sunset. we were at sunset. camp is a very important place to both of us as we have experience a lot of spiritual growth working summers there. we had a very great conversation that i'll store away for our memories, but it was very special. and then we were able to share the exciting news with friends and family via phone and with all our camp friends in person at bbq. best weekend ever!

i also leave for kenya... um, sunday. that's two days from now. goodness! there are a lot of things to get done. for one, i haven't even started packing yet (but i do have a list). plus being gone for two weeks means i want to spend as much time with drew as i can. oh and now that i'm engaged and we want to get married by the end of the year, there is much to be done in that department before i leave for the trip.

but praise the Lord! i am blessed with an amazing fiance, supportive family and friends, an awesome opportunity to serve in kenya. there are definitely some busy months ahead!
