Happy 20th Anniversary, Bethany!

Today is my 20th wedding anniversary! I don't think it is possible because I don't feel that old.

I am thankful for my amazing wife.  She has been a blessing to me in so many ways.

I still remember:
  • seeing you for the first time on our wedding day as you walked down the aisle.
  • the large hole in the back of my tux jacket that had to be repaired.  Thanks Denice!
  • all of the great food at the reception that we hardly ate and a meal at Carlos O'Kelley's that we didn't eat much of either.
  • being sent to the basement of the church because of bad weather and how some of our guests saw a tornado on their drive home, but when we drove to Kansas City, we only saw rainbows.
  • an awesome week in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for our honeymoon including Blue's Clues, 10 grain pancakes (or was it more?), wonderful restaurants, beaches, going to the movies, and even a waterpark (you must of been in love because I don't think you have been to one since)  We still have the towels we bought on that trip.
  • celebration of anniversaries in Colorado (why did we see Austin Powers?), Branson, Kansas City, and Wichita.  And hopefully one to remember this Fall?
  • our 3 apartments and 3 homes
  • the 4 kids that have been added over the years
I love you with all my heart!  Enjoy a few pictures of us over the years.

You Are Blameless

“May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24  The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.” (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24)
