2 Months...So much joy!

Our second month of marriage has passed and we can't believe it has gone by so fast! However, we are continually amazed at all God has done in 2 months!! So many blessings; from graduation, commissioning, a safe move, finances, a place to live, new friends, old friends, and loving families...how could we ask for more? I cannot find the words to express how grateful I am for the learning and growing that is taking place in our relationship with each other and God.
*Plus a side note: Lots of our joy has come from the news that we are adding to our Aunt and Uncle bundle-of-joy with the addition of TWINS! Devin and Kathy will be welcoming Anna Claire and Charlie in April! Our nephew, Daniel brings so much happiness and fun to our lives! We are a very proud Aunt and Uncle :0)

Our New Year Resolutions are to hike more and to "run the race". A dear friend of our family, Jan, passed away over the holidays. From her life we have been encouraged to live life with the same endurance, joy, and positive outlook that she had. We are committed to not missing an opportunity to serve, have fun, or reach for a dream.
We are enjoying this stay in South Carolina and are really looking forward to the fun adventures we have planned while here, like hiking, the Biltmore house, and a few trips to Auburn.
