20 Years of Marriage

Time is peculiar. The past 20 years have both flown by and stood still.  So much has happened and changed since May 18th, 2005.

My husband and I have experienced so much in 20 years. We’ve given birth to our daughter, and now she is getting ready to graduate. We finished raising our other kids who have become amazing adults. We’ve worked together our entire marriage. We’ve cried over our fathers’ deaths, seen our moms through major health issues, and made it through the covid era. Half of the 20 years was spent leading praise and worship together, a joy I will treasure. We’ve had the privilege of enjoying countless family trips as well as countless hours on the farm fishing, riding, etc… Recently we experienced the joy of welcoming our first grandchild. Our first 20 years have been a wild ride. We’ve laughed, cried, yelled, prayed, grieved, served, worked, ached, hurt, and grown together.

I look forward to the next 20 years of our journey. Hopefully we can take what we’ve learned over the past 20 and make the next 20 even better. I’m thankful my mom showed me an ad in the paper, and I’m glad your dad hired me.
