The Announcement

I was so excited after receiving the phone call about winning the tickets to the Revolve Tour.  I couldn't wait to see Karlee and tell her, in fact I wanted to go get her out of school.  I managed to wait all day then I get a call and its Karlee asking me if I would pick her up, normally she walks homes.  I jumped to the opportunity to have a few minutes by ourselves so I could announce to her what we would be doing in a few weeks.  Before going to pick her up I text her and told her that I would see her in a few minutes and that I had a surprise for her.  As soon as she got in the van, not even out of the parking lot of the school I shouted out the news.  She was so excited she screamed.  Her whole face lite up with happiness and excitement and then she leaned over and hugged me and was just consumed with excitement.  I loved watching every moment, while keeping my eyes on the road of course.  By the end of the day anyone that Karlee and I held close in our life knew about the special event and all the excitement.

I said a silent prayer later that day thanking God so much for his answer to my prayer and asked him to prepare our hearts for the event and the weekend alone together.
