Twenty Years Ago Today

Little did they know......

-They would be living in Georgia instead of in New York.

-They would be raising five wonderful children together.

-Who Jesus is and what He did for them.

-That Brian would loose all that thick hair he had :)

-What it meant to love unconditional and serve sacrificially.

-Who the leader was and who was suppose to follow.

-They could love each other more than they did on that day.

-How much mercy and kindness would follow them into each day.

Even if they did know...they would do it all over again in a second.

Celebrate Love...47 years together

Rejoicing with you Mom & Dad on 47 blessed years together. How the Lord has been so kind to bring you to this day...together, best friends, and still In love! What a journey it has been...Amazing grace before our eyes! Thank you for your continued example of loving each other in a way that honors the Lord and brings glory to His name...unconditionally, sacrificially, joyfully devoted to one another. What a wonderful gift the Lord has given us in marriage. May you continue to reflect His light and love together for many years to come.

Makin' a Memory with Madison & Mom

Turning "10" in our house is pretty special. As I have done with both Lauren and Jordan when they turned ten, I took Madison away for the night for some special "mom & daughter" time. We stay overnight in a local hotel and spend about 24 hours celebrating becoming a young lady! One of the highlights of our time is they get to finally get their ears pierced. Madison did great, she was very brave. She also got a haircut that made her look very much like a young lady...ouch! I so enjoyed my time with her. It has always been a very special time with each of my girls. Their personalities are all so different, but it is fun to relate and choose activities that bless them. I now pass the "10-torch" on to Brian to make special memories with the boys. I know one thing, they won't be getting their ears pierced:)
