Wednesday's Walk - 15 years of Love


Today, John and I will be celebrating 15 years of marriage. I am amazed how much I love that man more and more everyday.

I started dating John when I was 16 years old....yes we are high school sweet hearts.

The very first thing that he ever said to me, was when I was 15 years old, he came up to me at the school pop machines and said, "Will you marry me?" I thought he was crazy!!!! I said, "NO WAY!" Who knew?!

You can go read our story here....John & Me!

How did you meet your spouse?

Have a blessed day. I know today I will...
GET JOY!

Wednesday's Walk - The Peace Patrol



"Hello, My name is Sam Saint, Super Sleuth!" said Dick Gruber a child's evangelist about 27 years at my christian schools chapel. For the next half hour, I listen to him intently as he shared the gospel in a very creative detective kind of way. I loved every second of his presentation and remember a lot about it to this day. Out of all the children's Pastors/ Evangelist I have ever heard hands down he was my favorite. My hubby thinks he heard him when He was a kid too.

Yesterday, my kids went to came home from kids camp and couldn't stop talking about the speaker. There two favorite things at camp Go-Karts and the service. I later found out...Sam Saint Super Sleuth was there. I nearly cried, because the very same man who spoke into my heart so many years ago had now spoke into the lives of my girls.

So, thank you Sam Saint, Super Sleuth....thank you.

"I am living for him faithfully in the Peace Patrol with my partner the Holy Spirit" and I will ....
GET JOY!

Wednesday's Walk - 4th of July Traditions

For most of my life, I have spent the 4th of July in the beautiful town of Ludington. We go to the horrendously long parade and then in the evening sit on the beach to watch the spectacular fireworks. I love every minute of it.

Enjoying the parade!
Having fun on the beach; but not loving the sand...poor little man. LOL
This one family does this on the beach every 4th.
Fun sunset photos...

Do you have any fun firework memories?

Wednesday's Walk - Quirks I love!

When we were dating, every time we stopped to get gas my man would always wash the window. I would always watch in amazement how he perfectly he would wash and scrape every inch of the windshield. After a really seemingly long process, it would sparkle when he was done. I would always laugh because when I would wash the windshield, I could care less and it would be streaky and well....you can imagine ....obviously a girl too busy with too much on her mind to care about a windshield. LOL

A perfectly cleaned windshield is one of my hubby's cute little qwirky things that I would not change for the world.
I love him!

Wednesday's Walk idea:
Does your spouse or boyfriend/girlfriend have a funny quirk you love?


GET JOY!
