They celebrate this day as their anniversary…
I celebrate this day because it gave me all of this
June 24, 2018…23 years of marriage, add almost 10 for dating, that’s a long time of ❤️
our dear sweet man brought us to the east coast for a quick getaway
although we sure missed the white sand of the Gulf, we had a fun day playing in the saltwater
anytime we can take a moment to be silly and have a break from the fast world is the best
love my sky above
love to one of my first tokens of this marriage
and my other two sweeties
we started our two days away at the state capital…always time for a little education
learning has to be fun
otherwise it becomes a distant memory
Happy Memories in June for each of us!

There are always chores and responsibilities waiting for us in the vineyard and the garden, but most importantly are the times we take to create memories with those we most love
kayak time
these days are so carefree
Thank you Lord for these healthy children!
We always like when Papaw watches us fish and play on the water
Little Lambie is the sweetest…sometimes!
Nana agrees!
all my little loves

happy birthday Nana
A visit with Aunt Fran

rising lake waters always add a little extra fun
especially when it covers the dock
these days have been laid back and relaxing
