Blessings #10 - Anniversary #28



Has it really been 28 years? Only my photos tell the truth. The wedding picture shows 2 skinny, unwrinkled, no-gray-hair young people. In my mind, I'm still like that. But the camera and the scales tell a different story. Here are a few memories of the last 28 years.

1. Six great children - Logan, Lindsay, Nathan, Brendan, Emma-Leigh, & Maci
2. Three different states - Arizona, Colorado, Idaho
3. Fourteen different houses
4. Two beautiful granddaughters - Gwendolyn May and Phoebe Elizabeth
5. Three missionaries on three continents - Logan, Taiwan--Nathan, Portugal--Brendan, Brazil
6. One acquired daughter - Rachelle
7. One acquired son - Ronnie
8. One new one on the temple steps - Rebecca
9. So many friends in so many places
10. A family that is entrenched in the true gospel

BUT MOST OF ALL...................A loving, caring husband who would do anything for me. Here he is with the pop-up anniversary card he made for me. Thanks for 28 great years!!!!!

Happy, Happy Anniversary! I remember coming to PHX when I was in high school and staying with you and Doug over night before going down to Granny's. That was pre-kids for y'all! I remember thinking...'how cool to be married'. You made some awesomely HOT enchiladas, too! Here's to another 28 years!!!
