It's hard to believe that it's been 10 years since we were married... We had such a quick courtship and short engagement, that we would marvel at each year that we were together. God has done a great work in us and it's amazing to see where He's brought us.

Married in Pinckney, Michigan
I was teaching 2nd grade at a wonderful Christian school and Barry was working for a women's conference group selling/managing merchandise. It was just the end of the traveling season for Barry and we were looking forward to 3 months together before he began traveling again. We were hopeful that there would be a change in his job so that he could stay home more, but we didn't know what that would be. This year's class for me was the best one I had in my teaching career. They worked well with me and we had a great time. We were involved in a great church and enjoyed doing things with Barry's family almost every weekend.

Living in Lebanon, Tennessee
We are both working in jobs that we never anticipated doing when we moved down to Tennessee just over 8 years ago. I'm at a non-profit in an administrative role and Barry's working for a warehouse. God blessed us with a baby boy almost two years ago and we are loving every moment of life with him. We're at the 5th church since moving here and enjoy serving and getting to know people there.

We've definitely had our ups and downs -- moved from an apartment to a wonderful rental home with awesome neighbors, 3 miscarriages, supportive co-workers at each our jobs, experiencing the joy of pregnancy and birth of our son, etc. God has taught us a lot and we continue to be in situations where He's teaching us more.
