5 years!

I find myself wondering today, where the time has gone.  5 years ago this day, Kelly and I stood in front of many of you and pledged ourselves to one another.  Through all things, in all circumstances, in faith and love we would go.  It is in faith that we trust our time spent, and our time to come, has been, and will be, lived for and through the one who created all time.  We prayed today and found ourselves so thankful for the mix of sunshine and dust, tears and sweat and starlight that have marked our journey together.  It is the work of love that makes joy in love.  It is the committment to the best in one another that perseveres even when arguments linger in short-sidedness.  It is the friendship of authentic community that challenges and encourages life and love.  It is the grace of Christ that sustains in both success and failure.  It is love that has been worth it all.

Love,
M&K

Congrats! Wow in some ways it feels like yesterday we were celebrating your wedding and in some ways I can't remember when you weren't married! We love you both so much and are excited to see where the next five years will take you.
