Happy Anniversary!

Today is my parent's 39th wedding anniversary.  I am so proud and thankful that God chose these two people to be my parents.  I have been so lucky and blessed to grow up in a home with two loving parents who were dedicated to one another and committed to giving me a happy, healthy upbringing.  Growing up as an only child, I have always been super close to my parents and we always did everything together.  I remember my parents as an unshakable team as I was growing up.  They are best friends and I always hoped that when I grew up I would have a strong marriage like they do.  They set the best example of a great marriage...they know how to be selfless, forgiving, and compassionate with one another.  I just couldn't have had a better example.  I am also blown away at the amazing grandparent they have become!  They are always there for my kids and probably more than any tangible object, they give Brock and Kenzie their time.  They always have time for my kids, whether it be inviting them for a sleepover or making their favorite meal.  It is really important to them that they are involved with their grandchildren.  The kids know that they can count on them to be there no matter what the need.  Finally, my parents have chosen to love and accept my husband as their own family and both Chuck and I will be forever grateful for that.  We love you Mom and Dad!  Happy Anniversary...and here's to many more happy years and memories!
