Mark and I are celebrating our 17th wedding anniversary today, officially at 3 o'clock. I laugh as I write the time because Mark and I always argue over the time of our wedding. He swears it was at 2 o'clock! One year I had to dig through boxes and pull out the invitation to prove it to him! We sent the kids to Nana and Papaw's house last night for a sleepover, then we went to dinner and shopping at some of our favorite stores without kids! Today, we spent the day running errands together for our upcoming beach trip and grilling supper. We're about to eat a chocolate-covered fruit bouquet the kids gave us, then we'll watch our wedding video with the kids before bed. They love to watch it so they can die laughing at the way we all look! Lydia's been looking at our wedding album and I hear she was wearing my veil today at Nana's house since my dress is still there!
We are so thankful for 17 years together. Our marriage is not perfect, and we have our good days and bad days just like any other couple. But, we feel so blessed to have each other and 3 healthy, happy kids. This is something we do not take for granted and we owe all the glory to God for giving us all these years together. We know Satan is attacking Christian marriages and families like crazy and we are not immune from his attacks. It is our daily prayer that God would bind Satan from our home and that Jesus would be honored in all that we do. We pray the same for you and your home.
Happy Anniversary, Mark! I love being your wife and can't wait for 17 hundred more years together!
