10th Anniversary

- Get Your Own

WOW! It's been ten wonderful years of marriage as of today! It's an understatement to say I can't believe it's already been that long. Here's a recap of the years for all to see...
1st year - We were SO young - Erik wasn't even out of college yet (yes folks, I'm the older woman).
2-We moved back to Atlanta, made some good solid friends and I think we felt very grown up living in a little house with our new dog.
3- Lots of transition including a move to Europe. We were preparing for many exciting things in our future.
4-I wish I could erase this year totally except that it provided so many crazy, hilariously, unbelievable stories!! We drew on each other for LOTS of support.
5-Things were well, we had a good ministry year (our work at the time) and we also welcomed our daughter Alexia to our family.
6-We moved back to the states and reverse culture shock blindsided us like a Mac truck. Once again, with each other's support, we gained strength and courage.
7-Finally!! We bought our own house! We feel very blessed by so many things - Jobs, home, church, neighbors, and family.
8-Minor changes this year, Alexia brings us much joy and we were awaiting our 2nd.
9-We decided on adoption for our third child. Not many other major changes again - Are we settling into LIFE?
10-This has been a good year of spiritual growth and inner reflection for both of us. I think we have both grown a lot as individuals which has helped in our marriage.

I couldn't have picked out a better spouse - He's a keeper!!
