OOps! A day late blogging!


11 Years! Wow! Joey and I have been married for 11 years! This last one was a big one for us- becoming parents, 10 year anniversary, 30th b-days, and traveling Germany & Russia! We had a wonderful exciting year but we would be happy to have a more laid back 2008 into 2009! We are excited to enjoy our family and define who we are AS a family.

Well, I have to say I have been blessed so greatly by the man God gave to me. He is incredible. He always accepts me the way that I am....sweats, dressed-up, when I am busy, when I am lazy, with short hair, long hair, etc... He is patient and has a sweet forgiving heart. He is a man that allows me to step out in my dreams and ministry and supports me all the way. He cooks! Yes, I caught me a man who cooks! I have been so blessed by this creative man. He is faithful and loyal and true. He is such a hard worker and I respect him greatly. And now the pleasure I have received as I have watched him step immediately into Daddy. He blows me away with his patience, compassion, and playfulness. I could not ask for anything greater for my children. Jesus gave him to me to be my strength and I am so blessed. I hope I can be as much of a gift to him as he is to me.

I can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together. <3

P.S. The one thing Joey can't stand is those glasses on me! Ha! Just ignore how silly they are and how my cheeks push them up when I smile!
