Emma and Aaron got engaged on 8/29!!! Emma graduated Marine Bootcamp on 8/22. I don't know how she and Aaron (who is an Army Soldier at his job training in TX) will be able to live their lives close together but God knows and He will work out the details. God is faithful ALL the time!!!

Here's a pic her Soldier:



Emma's sister, Bethany, is engaged to my youngest son, Adam. This picture was taken when Bethany was surprised with a visit home from Adam before his deployment to Iraq. She had NO idea he was coming home - all she knew was that she was going to be receiving a BIG surprise! It sure was!!!





Now I have three in the military - Bethany is not allowed to join the military. I would definitely be going through withdrawals if she did! LOL!

This is John and I with Emma and Bethany.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing all the pictures. If they get married, the military will be required to station them within a certain distance of one another's duty station. Then they can live together and drive to work. Until marriage, however, they are just at the mercy of the military.

Congratulations on the engagement! That's great news.

Thanks for sharing the pictures with us Kate. Have they set a wedding date yet?

No Diane, not yet - they need to wait until Adam returns from Iraq. Then it will be a wedding planned in 3 weeks, LOL!!!

Well, congratulations to all of your family!

Those are beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing. I know you must be proud of your daughter.

As a civilian, I appreciate your children's service in our armed forces.

Congratulations!

That will be a quick wedding. I thought that a little over two months of serius planning was short. I wouldn't want to plan it in three weeks.
