10

10 years. We have been happily married for 10 years! This little entry will spare the emotional and gushy , lovey dovey stuff and cut to the chase, because after all, we don't have time for that these days! We wanted to go on a big trip, which included airplane tickets to somewhere exotic, and we wanted to renew our vows and celebrate all the has happened and the ways God continues to bless our marriage. But funny thing, about 8 months ago I asked for a simple back rub...and well you can see the baby bump! So this put a temporary hold on those previous plans and we made a last minute trip up to Port Townsend for 4 days (the longest we have been away from the girls)!!! It was amazing. Quiet time, waking when we wanted, eating whatever, whenever, being to go to the bathroom in privacy, it was the little things really!
Taking the ferry to Vancouver Island, Canada! neither of us have explored there before!

We spent a lot of time outdoor, hiking and trying to spot wildlife. Some of the signs are hilarious!
Unfortunately, we never did find a good cup of coffee. Very disappointing.


One of the highlights, JJ saw several animals he is hoping to shoot during hunting season this year!


This is Dungeness Spit, the start of a 10 mile round trip hike on a sand bar to a little lighthouse! we ate a little restaurant near here that had a hometown bluegrass band of old men entertaining us. They were great and it was refreshing and humbling to see some couples in their late 80's dancing and loving on each other. They still had the sparkle in their eyes. We will be there someday!



We are so thankful for family that helped take care of our girls while we got away. We are still so much in love with each other and thank God for every day He gives us together!
