A Marriage made in heaven....



















Yes, just two months from today is the wedding of Daniel and Candice. It will be a beautiful, intimate wedding in warm Georgia - with family and friends.
Just to fill you in about this new daughter we are getting, and our son, Daniel - here are some things you might want to know!

ABOUT CANDICE
Candice lives in Charlotte, NC, and works as a Volunteer Coordinator at a shelter for the homeless. Candice enjoys music, photography, college football and anything creative and different.

ABOUT DANIEL
Right now Daniel is living in Grand Rapids, MI, working as a Maintenance Director at the Best Western Hotel. Daniel enjoys home renovation, basketball, writing poetry, snowboarding, football and line dancing.

HOW THEY MET
Candice is friends with Joel and Lisa, who Rebekah and Ben also knew from their church. One weekend Candice came down to visit Joel and Lisa, and met Rebekah and Ben. They all went out for dinner together, and after the meal, Rebekah told Lisa that she wanted Candice to marry her brother....and it wasn't too long after, that Daniel met Candice when he was visiting Rebekah and Ben!

THE ENGAGEMENT
November 17, 2006!!!
Daniel TOTALLY surprised Candice and flew down to see her on November 17th. It didn't take very long for Daniel to give her a VERY sweet and emotional poem that he had written...and within that poem he asked her to marry him! A phone call came a few minutes later to the family and we were TOTALLY thrilled with the news that Candice said "YES"!!!!

THE WEDDING
It's coming just 2 months from today....and then after the honeymoon - they (along with Candice's parents) will fly up to Manton for a great reception here with our families, church family, and friends.

THE MOVE
Daniel will be moving to North Carolina when they are married - Candice will stay at her job for the time being, and Daniel is applying to several jobs that are open in his field in the area.
Now we will be able to see Ben, Rebekah and Brock in South Carolina, and Daniel and Candice in North Carolina when we visit!

Line dancing? What fun to learn a few more things about them both. And I never knew he wrote poetry!
