Three years and counting...

Three years ago today, on a blistering hot day, Sara and I exchanged vows of love and faithfulness and began the adventure of marriage. It was an intimate little service with 350 of our closest friends and family members, at First United Methodist Church of Hudson, where I was serving as pastor, with 12 pastors officiating (all of them family members and close friends -- that was our wedding party!), lots of music, Holy Communion, and many special elements, followed by a dessert reception (chocolate fountain and all!) at Rolling Ridge.

We're headed out to dinner in a few minutes to celebrate (we have a babysitter and everything!), and tomorrow, while Rachel plays with her grandparents, we're taking the day to relax and enjoy each other. We don't know what we're doing yet, but it doesn't even matter, because we'll be together.

I am blessed to have a wonderful wife, life partner, and partner in ministry.

Many happy returns of the day! Love you all, so happy we're neighbors.

I hear you have the BEST babysitter in town!! ;-) Also, I think you look way different in that wedding picture than you do now.

But really...You are both wonderful...I'm glad your journey has brought you here to this time and place.

Here's to many more loving and faithful years together.

I'm going to post this anonymously...and you'll NEVER know who posted it!!
