Just want to give a quick update as to why I have not blogged in the last week. MY SWEET HUSBAND
surprised me with a cruise to Cozumel for our anniversary. (Compliments of my mother in law)!! It was a
blast being away with my man...but I am a little behind at the Home front and spending my time trying to
get things back in order :-) So, I will update with pics and more fun stuff next week.
Happy Resurrection!

The Best Is Yet To Come
Last week we celebrated our 4th Anniversary! It's hard to believe that it has
already been 4 years...yet only been 4 years. So much has happened in our lives in such
a short time. I sense the belonging (together) now, more than I ever have. I am thankful for
those early memories in which we saw eachother through "rose colored glasses"...but with each
year comes new challenges, seasons, adventures and trials- which have produced a deeper love.
A love that (is beginning) to prefer the happiness of the other, over the happiness of self. A love
that is more interested in serving than in being served. A love that says "I've got your back" without
ever having to say a word. A love that is learning to listen...and understand rather than seeking to be
understood. . A love that laughs so hard our stomach muscles burn like fire! A love that is deeply
committed- not just for the sake of eachother...but for the Name and Glory of Jesus Christ! A love
that has one heart and one vision!
Woody,
I am more thankful for you today than I could have ever imagined! Thank you for loving me like you
do. Thank you for loving our babies and telling them daily how beautiful they are. Thank you for
being so patient with me when I am hard headed. Thank you for loving God and living your life
for Him. What an example you are for me and the girls! Thank you for teaching me things I do not
know. Thank you for being a safe place, a refuge. Thank you for laughing at my corny jokes. Thank
you for taking up "family" as your hobby. Thank you for having character- you are a trustworthy
man! Thank you for being wise and making good decisions for our family. Thank you for being So-
dang- good lookin!!! (well I guess I should thank your parents:-) Thank you for folding laundry and
changing diapers. You are my favorite!
I look forward to growing old with you!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! I LOVE YOU!
