One Year!

Wow! ONE YEAR. Romance, conflict, adventure, friendship, tears, playfulness, fears, faith...

BECOMING "ONE"!


We've had fun. We've struggled. We've gained greater understanding of each other. We've learned to love with grace. We've learned to fight with love. We've been surrounded by loving family and friends. We've experienced God's faithfulness and transforming power that redeems our lives for His glory! We love Him and we love each other.

We celebrated our "honeymoon" as I kept calling it, with a long weekend trip to Duluth, to experience the beauty of fall in MN and "JUST BE", something we have to make ourselves do sometimes :) I kept calling it our honeymoon, and finally decided to stop correcting myself because it made us more giddy anyway, remembering who we were one year ago...



Married life together finally feels "normal", rather than another transition or path unknown. We are "all in" and can't imagine life any other way! How exciting to experience the "oneness" God created for us to know, to be able to learn more about the love He put into all His designs through it. God is a genius! Everything good comes from Him. We thank Him for giving us love to share with each other...

Thank you for being in our lives this year, seeing us through some crazy life changes! We couldn't have done it without you :) Thanks for your genuine questions, wise insights, and intentional prayers on our behalf. Thank you for keeping us accountable to have fun amidst all the things that vie for our time! Thank you for being a part of "us"!

Much love

Thanks for your authenticity- and for continuing to move ahead in the lifelong journey of "loving well". I have been the recipient and observer of some of the love in that journey- and I'm grateful! I love you!
