Interlude to the regular...

I was asked to help at Nicol's Florist this week for the big Valentines rush! It has definitely made it out to be an interesting week as my parents were away and asked me to look after things back home, a tad hard when you work 9+ hour shifts, SO thankful for His grace and strength so far! Was nice to work with Jody, get to know more new people and get new experience in a different sort of field. Thankful for the different challenges that strengthen our faith in Him...

Dear Followers, I apologize for not writing on the happenings in the last few months! Many new opportunities, many ups and downs, but through it all - there is so much to learn, and hopefully in the process He's making us into stronger people, becoming more and more like Him! December was filled with lots of different Christmas happenings, get together's, music opportunities, visitations, baking, eating of yummy food, and spending time with family! I maybe took 3 or 4 pictures - not much to show, but will be bringing more pictures of the upcoming months!

I will be Mrs. Tallman ...background story!

Our story began August 20th, 2017 when through a fluke we got paired up to work a 12 hour shift together. Benjamin proved to be an incredible listener and super easy to talk to. This one shift turned into many more as Ben went to the supervisor (unbeknownst to me) requesting the same schedule. These shifts proved to be a highlight in my week and I couldn't wait to get on the truck every other Sunday with Benjamin. I cannot tell you when we started dating, but our first time meeting up to study (outside of work) was October 12th after school in a Starbucks in Grimsby, ON.
