Seems like just yesterday I was walking down the isle to marry my best friend. Well, it was yesterday, just three years ago yesterday. I remember the smell of my perfume that I put on especially for Pat, the look on my daddys' face and watching my mom cry when she helped me put my dress on, I remember every detail of the day. I really do. I remember waking up and being so scared and so excited at the same time. I had all of my family and friends there to share this special day with me and then we would be off to Jamaica!!
So yeah this year it wasn't quite Jamaica, but every detail of our anniversary was so special to me this year. Pat came home (with flowers and a card) and we shared a bottle of wine with each other on the back porch and talked about God's plan for us, the weather was perfect. Then we made dinner together (anniversary chicken) and sat on the couch snuggled up to one another. It was the best night ever. I told Pat I am so grateful for all the awesome things he does for me and how I know we could be on some Caribbean island enjoying this night, but it meant so much more to me, that we weren't! We were just content with the company of each other and didn't need beaches and sand to remind each other how in love we truly are.
This has been a tough year for both of us, but we have pushed forward and have found an unbelievable amount of support from our family and friends. Our faith in Jesus Christ is indescribable. We are growing so much in our walk of faith, while once we used to sit on the couch and stare at the TV until bedtime, now we sit and read the bible to each other at night. Melts my heart that my God has sent me this godly husband that I have forever prayed for. Pat is my rock and I am so thankful for his support for me in my hard times this year and his faith in our lord that we will have a family one day. This faith that he has been so blessed with is spreading like wildfire. My momma always told me to marry a Godly man, and I sure did.
I am so anxious to see what doors will be opened for us this next year.
This blog is created for our family and friends. No matter how far away, we want to share this walk of faith that we are on with all of you.
