Congratulations

This is a picture of a very happy couple...Kim and Mark.  They got engaged this past weekend.  Mark is our nephew.  You might remember him from a post in my previous blog here


Kim lives in Phoenix and Mark lives in northern Alberta.  For the past year or so they've been carrying on a long distance romance.  Kim flies up to Edmonton whenever she can and Mark comes down to Phoenix just as often.  Kim is American and Mark is Canadian.

Mark's mother spends a fair amount of time in Arizona and on one of Mark's visits to her, one of her friends introduced him to Kim.  And the rest is history.  Over the past year, with all their travelling back and forth between the two countries, the family has come to know and love Kim and are happy to have her join the family.

They have some logistical problems to overcome  but they'll work through them and Kim will move to Alberta  and join the MacKenzie clan there.

So Congratulations to Kim and Mark!  Many happy years are ahead of you.

Will she have Canadian citizenship by marrying a Canadian? They are indeed a very handsome couple. Congratulations to them and to both families.
