It's a cellebration; 29 years married!

Today Ray and I celebrate our 29th year as a married couple. Some of the kids came home to spend a little time with us so we all went out to eat at the Mexican Restaurant. The food in addition to the time with family was a lovely way to recognize how blessed we are.

Here is our daughter Kristen, with baby on the way. We are so happy about that!

Next is it our son Jeremy and his wife Joanna. They always add a bit of spark to life. They are still newlyweds at least until August when they too will celebrate their one year anniversary :)

In this picture the girls look great, but I'm not sure what Jeremy was doing. It is difficult to get a good shot of him by camera due to his silly sense of humor. He is always making faces. We love these guys.

Thank you Lord for blessing our lives, first for loving us then giving us one another to love and then by giving us a wonderful family that will continue into the next generation and then the next and so on, as you have designed. You are a good and loving Father and we recognize your work in our lives this day above all else. Glory and honor to you Lord!
