Wedding #4

 It's official!


Elannah and her boyfriend, Dalton, are engaged! 

Did I mention before that Elannah broke up with Dalton a little over a month ago? If I did, this engagement announcement will come as somewhat of a surprise. Without spilling the tea on all of their personal details, both of them grew a lot in the month they were apart. What amazed me most, however, was how Dalton handled being broken up with by the love of his life. He was terribly confused and sad, but he never spoke badly about Elannah to his friends and family. When he and Elannah ran into each other (which is inevitable in our burg), he was kind and caring rather than bitter and vengeful. Eventually, Elannah spent a lot of time praying, fasting, and visiting the temple, and she got an answer that marrying him was the thing she needed to do.

Dalton is a great guy, so we couldn't be happier. He even came and asked Husband and me for our permission before he made his surprise proposal plans, and he was so sincere and sweet. I found out later that he was so nervous about talking to us that he just about vomited, but he was very open with us during our interrogation interview. Even Husband was impressed, which is saying something. Husband asked Dalton a lot of tough questions to make him sweat a little, but we already liked him, so the interview was pretty much a formality.

The wedding will be in August. The venue is booked and Elannah has chosen her wedding colors.

It's on.
