Fun family news!
This past weekend our son Kurt asked his girlfriend Kellie Fusilier to marry him—and she said, “YES!”
Unbeknownst to Kellie, Kurt had been in cahoots with her family and they drove from Louisiana to be with us at the lake this weekend. How it played out…
Kurt and Kellie were camping with friends on a nearby island and after he proposed, he sent us a quick text saying, “Done!” at which time we all piled in the boat and drove over to surprise them. And wow was Kellie ever surprised! The look on her face when she saw her parents and twin sister (and her precious nieces) . . . priceless!
She’d so wanted to share this moment with her family too (whenever the proposal came!) so this was a really wonderful weekend.
Our families blend so well together, our mutual faith in the Lord being the cornerstone and interweaving everything else together so beautifully. Thank you, Jesus! Lord, bless our son and his future wife—and our “new daughter.”
As Leslie (Kellie’s mom) said, “When our kids marry, their spouses become our children too!” And I wholeheartedly agree. Blessings abound in the Alexander and Fusilier household and we’re so grateful.
Now comes the wedding planning, which is also fun!
What’s the last wedding you’ve attended? Was it during COVID or before? Anything especially memorable about it? It can be a more serious memory or a funny one—or both! : )
Thanks for sharing in our joy,
