25 Years

Twenty-five years ago today I said "I do" to a preacherman. Today he is so much more than that as God brought us together to have four great kids and serve Him together. It seems like yesterday my dad walked me down the aisle and gave me to Rob. Through sickness and health, good times and bad, we have stayed where God put us 25 years ago, together. It has not been smooth sailing. That story is for another day.
I cannot imagine, nor do I want to, my life without him. I did write a tribute(p. 6, The Rest of The Story), to him in our last month's church newsletter which says what I'm saying today.
We took the day off from our daily work to spend the day together using the several gift cards given to us by our loving church family and friends. We will also be celebrating in a month with my mother-in-law who will be married again and Rob will do the ceremony.
Happy Anniversary to my best friend and the husband God knew I needed.

Yes, to God alone be the glory, great things He has done. He alone gets the glory for sustaining our marriage and growing it into a healthy, loving relationship. We want to honor Him in everything.

Congratulations Rob and Jody! What an inspiration to Jon and I! We will be up in Phoenix visiting Jan and my parents for the wedding so hopefully we'll see you!
