Garlin is Getting Married! Now I Need Your Help…
Yes, it’s official.
I proposed to my my girlfriend, Ellen Smith, on December 1st, and she happily accepted! We can’t wait to marry one another and spend the rest of our lives together.
Now we need your help
Ellen and I are finalists in the FOX 2 Detroit Wedding of a Lifetime contest. The contest winner will receive a beautiful, all-expenses-paid destination wedding on Lake Michigan.
I am asking all of you to vote for us to win the Wedding of a Lifetime.
How to vote:
- Watch our 1 minute video to hear why Ellen and I deserve to win.
If the link doesn’t work, you can paste http://bit.ly/wedding-of-a-lifetime into your browser address line. - Create an account on the FOX 2 Detroit website. You’ll need to give your email address, name, and address. You don’t have to live in Michigan to vote.
- Vote for us! You can vote once every hour. Voting ends at midnight on December 14th.
The SuperSpade has been an important part of my life since Brandon and I started the site in November 2005. I appreciate your continued support of the site and of me personally.
Other news
While I’m writing about personal news, I’ll also include that I had knee surgery on December 2nd (the day after I proposed). I’m at home now, recovering, and will hopefully be back up and on my feet before Christmas. Please pray for me. And yes, voting for Ellen & I will make my knee heal faster. 🙂
One Love. One II.
