Happy Anniversary
Today it's our FIFTEENTH Wedding Anniversary!
To say it has been a FULL ON 15 years with many highs and lows is an understatement! Many, many failures & mistakes but always matched and overcome by God's love and grace. We are very thankful to Jesus who brought us together and really is the reason we are still together.
