6 Years...


Today is our 6th wedding anniversary...the year of candy, iron and wood. If Todd's reading this, I'd prefer candy...

So far we celebrated while watching "Babes in Toyland" with Hailey, french toast for breakfast, and a family nap...good times! Here's a recap of the last 6 years for Todd and I -

*Bought a house
*Bought a construction company
*Started leading Young Life together at FWHS
*Asked the Lord for a family...then had to wait on His timing (perfect timing, of course)
*Lost a baby, then got pregnant with Hailey!
*Bought a house to remodel 6 weeks before I was due with Hailey, began remodeling
*Sold our house just a few weeks after having her
*Moved into our new house before it had a functioning kitchen...with a newborn! :)
*Grew into our role as parents...not the easiest thing I've ever done, that's for sure!
*Lost another baby, but got pregnant right away with baby Owen...
*Watched the economy take a nose dive
*In process of learning TRUST in a new way, as we ask the Lord to provide for our family.

As you can see, we've been busy, but know that the Lord has been busy at work growing us individually and as a couple.

Love you, Todd!
