2nd Anniversary


James and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary yesterday. Hard to believe two years have flown by so quickly, and yet we have done so much together in these two short years. Most of our day yesterday was spent at church, with the morning being filled by the craziness of Vacation Bible School. But we did make a wonderful dinner last night: salmon, grilled asparagus, roasted potatoes, wine, and a delectable peach cobbler for dessert. This dinner was really a labor of love, as it took four different stores to gather all of these ingredients.

But as we sat over dinner chatting about the day, and about this and that, I realized something very wonderful about our marriage. We have spent most of our days together the last two years as fellow students, and now we’ve spent every single day together this summer for our internship. And we work really well together. We never get tired of being around one another, and even at the end of a long day at work or in classes together – we still have loads to talk about. I think that really is the definition of a soul-mate, and we continue to praise the Lord that “the boundary lines have fallen upon pleasant places.”

Congrats on two years!

I hear you on loving spending time together. When some people hear that Daryl and I have been in school together for the duration of our marriage and that we've done three internships together (three!), they think we're totally nuts. "Don't you drive each other crazy?" is a question we get a lot. The truth is that we just love being together, and count ourselves really blessed to have started down a career path that let us do that for a season. It's the best!

We miss you guys - can't wait to see you back in P-ton!
