this morning, while i was on the elliptical, i decided to listen to a podcast from MSU's RUF.

i didn't look at the date or topic, just picked one.

it happened to be brian sorgenfrei's talk on genesis 29.

it also happened to be the night he announced that Dane and I were engaged. 

wow. i started laughing in the gym. i looked kinda weird. but i was so taken a-back!

i spent the next 40 minutes listening to his sermon, and praising God for the time i have had with Dane since then. i thought back on how we were back then, things we struggled with, how we loved each other, etc. we have changed so much, and it is only by the grace of God that we are where we are. i was tickled to think about our growth and the things we have experienced and been through since then. i think it's so good that i can look back on the hard moments or the down days and laugh at them.

i have to praise God for not only giving me Dane, but for opening up the doors for me at RUF. God used it to changed my life. on wayyy too many levels to discuss here.

PS-- what made me laugh so hard? Brian said "if you wondered why Dane was at the Halloween party in a tux cowered in the corner and nervous, it's because he was about to propose". i laughed so hard! i remember that so vividly. everyone was like "what's up with Dane?". cracks.me.up. love you Dane!
