Spring Joys!

There is so much to be thankful for during this season! The beauty of nature, the resurrection of our Savior, and answered prayers! We got to enjoy the beauty of nature by taking a trip to Asheville and celebrating our 5 months of marriage :) We had so much fun getting away and being in God's creation! We have a new favorite restaurant up there called The Fiddlin' Pig! We enjoyed celebrating Easter with family and friends. "For no greater love than this that a man lay down his life for a friend." The awesome thing is that our Savior laid down his life for friends and foes. It was inspiring and exciting to celebrate this for the first time with Justin as my husband...my soulmate and brother in Christ. Last, but not least we are blessed to see many answered prayers around us!! Anna Claire and Charlie, our niece and nephew in the NICU, are doing better everyday. It's also so uplifting to see the faith and joy that Christ has shown through my sister and brother-in-law's outlook. The babies should hopefully be home by Mothers Day! Also, Justin's Dad has continued to remain safe and busy while working overseas and Justin's sister and her baby-on-the-way are doing really well and staying healthy!

All around us are blessings...not because of what we do, but because of the gracious Lord we serve. We are really enjoying our last 6 weeks and can't believe how fast the time is going!

Thanks for your prayers.
We love you all!
