On Saturday, February 20, 2021 Carew asked Kara Michelle Johansen to marry him for time and all eternity.
And guess what???
She said YES!!!
Carew and Kara had gone ring shopping and picked out something beautiful, and Carew just had to wait for the day when the ring would be finished and ready to pick up.
That day finally came and then I don't think he could ask her fast enough!
It was so cute watching him full of nerves and excitement as he was anticipating the day, and when it finally came, I was happy to be a small part of it.
Carew had already taken Kara's dad Jeff out to dinner to ask for her hand in marriage, and when Carew said he wanted to do it in front of her family, I knew that it would be something very special for not only Kara, but for all of her family as well.
Kara's grandma Arlene was kind enough to let me into her back yard to set up a romantic display for Carew.
And because we had very little time to do this, my friend Joanne came to help and be an extra set of hands to get it all done in time to get out of their house before Kara and Carew arrived.
Kara's grandparents were hosting a Valentine's dinner for their family, and it was an evening that Kara was already looking forward to with her family, and had no idea what was coming!
As the family gathered for dinner and a family prayer, Carew interrupted and said, "Just one more thing..."
He took her outside and got down on one knee!!!
And she said YES!
Later that evening Clint and I went back to their house to pick up the decorations and got to meet the family, and we are so grateful that Heavenly Father is giving Carew such an awesome new extended family to be a part of! Carew and Kara, we are so happy for you!!!
And thank you Carew for picking out such a beautiful girl, inside and out, to join the ranks of the Trickett clan!!! We are SO blessed!!!
WE LOVE YOU!!!
