The picture above so perfectly fits and describes my story—uphill, downhill, round and round, exciting, and scary, bright spots and dark spots. My “joyful journey” has sometimes been an amazing thrill ride and sometimes just a big downward spiral! But, the emotional, mental, and physical struggles are all part of the story, and through it all, I see clear reflections of God’s amazing grace.

39 Years

Thirty-nine years ago today we tied the knot--a good, strong one!


We've shared a lot of good times, and some hard times too. But, no matter what has come our way, we've always known that with God and each other, we could make it through.


So, here we are today, 39 years later, with a love that's stronger and a faith that's deeper than the day we said "I do."


"Many waters cannot quench love, rivers cannot wash it away..." (Song of Solomon 8:7 NIV)
