Third Anniversary Camping Trip
After three months of not really doing much outside of our apartment walls, we figure it was time to spend extended time in the great outdoors. We hiked to a familiar place, set up camp, and celebrated our 3rd Anniversary.
Third Wedding Anniversary Thoughts
Three years of life covenanted together as husband and wife. Three years of learning about each other and how to work together as a team. Three years of learning that the foundation of marriage is covenant love–the bearing all things, forgiving, trusting, persevering, not wanting your own way kind of love.

The Covenant. Our Eclectic Wedding in the Country
We wanted our wedding to reflect the true purpose for marriage & the Creator of marriage, to be a blessing for our friends and family, and to just be fun. For us, that meant lots of people, the outdoors, a casual atmosphere, barbecue, cookies (I’m not a huge cake person), & dancing. We also wanted our vows to be something that we could truly reflect on and cling to throughout all seasons of marriage– in the valleys and on the mountain tops.
