Happy 1st Anniversary!


A year ago I went from this family... being the youngest daughter... to suddenly being someone's wife! A year ago I married my best friend! This year has had it's share of ups and downs... from leaving the town we met in, the town we went to college in, the town we loved (oh c-ville)... and moving to a town that seemed to have nothing to offer. We spent months looking for jobs there, hoping that God would show us something... anything... He taught us how much we needed our families and how much our families truly love us! We spent many nights wondering how we would make it out of this unemployment mess we had gotten ourselves in and crying on each others shoulders. I can't describe in words the moments that we had together... learning how to love each other and trying to figure out what was in store for our future. I would like to say that within this year we figured it out... but we didn't. We did learn to trust each other and most importantly to trust God... and in turn HE placed us in a wonderful town... with jobs! And an amazing church family that has shown us love like I never knew possible. So to be quite honest... at times I thought this could be the worst year of my life with all the hard times... but it turned out to be a very blessed year indeed! So... as I said a year ago I married my best friend... the year has been tough but I would not change a minute of it! I love you Garrett and I look forward to many more years to come!
