He went to Jareds!


My sweetheart got down on his knee and asked for me to be his wife.

I said "YES"

It will be an honor to be Mrs. Ken Lindeen.

I never thought I would find a love like this, nor did I ever think I'd actually want to get married again.

But I did.

And I thank God every day for this happiness.

Every day that the sun rises, every night that the sun sets, I will thank God for helping me find my strength to stay this strong.  I will thank Him for keeping His faith in me, even when I had lost mine in Him.

Simple things




Sometimes life gets so hectic, you forget to stop and appreciate the simple things.

  • A beautiful sunrise with your lover by your side.
  • Your child's imagination while he plays quietly with his toys.
  • The pelicans swimming in the lake.
  • The touch of the wind on your face.
  • The warmth of the car on a cold day.
  • Fresh clean sheets on the bed.
  • Being the first to open the tub of butter.
  • Hearing your sweetie's voice first thing in the morning instead of the lousy alarm clock.
  • A good hair day.
  • Your grandma's homemade cookies.
  • A cloud that forms the shape of a heart.
  • Seeing the Energizer bunny in the moon, instead of a man's face.
  • A perfect grade on a test.
  • Going to bed knowing you accomplished something that day.
  • Freshly vacumed carpets.
  • The smell of your lover's cologne on his pillow.
  • A hello from a friend you haven't heard from in a while. 
  • The sound of the windchimes on a breezy day.
  • The smell of lilacs.
That's just to name a few.  What are your simple things?
