Another 365 days and year gone by.  This year brought us our first full year of being married.  There were blessings, announcements, decisions, health scares, and celebrations.  I feel like we experienced alot of different things, and I’m grateful to have had Gary by my side through them all.

Most of all, I’m thankful for a year of understanding my God’s grace in a deeper way.  He is so, so, so good and I’m thankful that He always upholds us wherever we are and whatever is going on around us.  Once again, we leave this year grateful for the Lord’s guidance, direction, protection and healing!
