They're in love!

And yes, I take full responsibility.
Just over a year ago, right before Christmas 2010, I introduced my two dear friends Erin and Ben.

I went to high school with Ben
Erin was in my Stake growing up.
The stars aligned and we all came to BYU-Hawaii.

Late one December night Cammie, Erin and I were going out to make this giant heart.  Cammie gets these creative ideas... and she wanted people to see the heart the next morning and think "Aww how sweet! That just just made my day!"  Ben texted me and in the excitement of our adventure (we even had war paint) I told him to meet us in front of the dorms, and to NOT be seen by ANYONE!  He followed those directions perfectly and walked his motorcycle through the back of the campus.  I said "Hey kids, this is my friend Ben!" and Cammie and Erin said "Hi" and then we made the heart and took pictures and went to bed.
About a week later Ben asked me for Erin's number, and proceeded to take her out on FIVE dates over Christmas break.
About a year later, and just a few weeks ago, they were sealed for time and all eternity in the Laie, Hawaii temple.



Ben and Erin,
I am overwhelmingly happy for you!  I wish you two a wonderful life filled with love, babies, skittles, dancing, laughing and balderdash.  You both deserve the best, and that's why you've found each other!

Erin,
 "When I get big..." someday I'll be married too.  Who knows when!  But it's gotta happen eventually.  And when it does, we'll have those adventures we always talked about.

Bengery,
Take care of my little girl, ya hear!?  If she's sad, sing her a song.  If she's being ridiculous, join in!  If she's hungry, give her oreos.   If she's happy, you're doing everything right.  

LIFE IS GOOD!
LOVE IS GREAT!
