Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog! Since we're just becoming acquainted, I will tell you a bit about myself...

Our Wedding Day

For 20 years I've been married to my wonderful husband, Tim, whom I met when I was 12 and he was 15. No, we didn't start dating at such a young age - we waited seven years. An age difference of three years isn't much when you're in your 40's, but during your teens it might as well be a 30-year difference. It may have taken seven years, but, when he asked me out, I didn't hesitate to say, "Yes"!

The photo to the right is exactly how I remember Tim looking the first day he captured my attention. From the beginning, I had a HUGE crush on him. My middle school journal includes entries where I gush about his gorgeous eyes and how much I wanted to date him. I had no idea he felt the same way about me. 

Date Night!

Over the years we've been through all of the situations mentioned in our vows - for better and for worse, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer - and we've realized the vows we spoke are not just literal; they're also figurative. We have been through phases when our relationship is great and others when it is lousy. It has experienced crippling sickness and robust health. At times we have felt poor in spirit, and at other times our richness of spirit can't be contained!


I wouldn't want to share it with anyone else.
