Erin and Siebe

We met in January 2001 in S.E. Calgary at Pete Liphuysen's home. While dropping off Siebe's roommate Noel after work we happened to be in the same room at the same time and just started chatting and joking around. A group of us agreed to go out and play some pool that evening and our conversation continued. By the end of the night sparks were starting to fly and Siebe asked for my phone number. He called the very next day and we went on our first official date. We have been pretty much inseparable since then. Eight and a half years later we are still together and going strong. We now live together in Irricana, Alberta with our cat (Kitty), dog (Zeus) and a bunch of freshwater fish. We are very excited about finally getting married and entering the next stage of our lives together. To have made this journey so far with one another we are very grateful. A special thanks to our family and friends that have also helped us get to this point in our lives!

This was pretty straightforward and business-like. We mutually agreed to get married, that it was time and somehow we had missed a step along the way, it had been eight years in the making already. So Siebe asked Peter Sikorski for his blessing to marry his daughter and was given the green light. Wohoo...party!
