25 Years and Counting!!!

I am very happy to announce that today is Jim and I's 25th anniversary! Our silver anniversary! I have told him that he has put up with me longer now than anyone, including my parents.

It is so easy to cruise along in life and pass by the "overlooks", if you will - can you tell I live in the mountains =). You know, the places along the road where you can stop and enjoy the view! Truly breathtaking views! Thanks, Lynn, for reminding me how truly BIG this is!!!

Friday night some very special friends of ours took us out to eat to celebrate. First of all let me give a plug for the place we went. For those of you in the area, you have to check out Black Bear Cove Resort . We have been in Tennessee for many years and I did NOT know about this resort. It was just beautiful . . . the food was excellent . . . and we had a lovely time. The resort is run by a Christian family and I hope you all will show your support to this small business.

Next I have to share the beautiful card that was also given to us . . .

A good marriage is measured by more than just the number of anniversaries you've shared -
it's measured by the content of your years together . . .
By the many people whose lives you've touched and who have touched yours.

By the dreams you've seen come true and the ones you're still working on.

By the joyful times when life was easy and the trying times when love saw you through.


Thanks again, Lynn, this card moved me, it spoke of things in my heart that I could never express on my own.

Our Heavenly Father is so amazing! I am so thankful for a God fearing husband, who is a wonderful father (and grandfather! =D), who is my soul mate, who loves me, and completes me!
