We did everything from swimming and chowing down, to having a birthday party and laughing way too hard!

Our Story
Forrest and I met at a church meeting in July 2009. You could call it a match making of sorts. His mom has told me that she always had her eye on me for Forrest but it was never the right timing. Finally, the time came for me to meet the love of my life. With the encouragement of Dana & Michael, Forrest skipped a lake day with the boys and came to church on Saturday! He always says that was the best decision he ever made.
I sat down at the table Forrest was sitting at and visited with him and his family thanking them for coming. I spent a few minutes there and moved on to speak with the other visitors at the church. Come to find out on the way home from the meeting Forrest said, "Is she married? (Not knowing what my True Love Waits ring was) I've got to figure it out."
From there we talked everyday. He came down every weekend at first. Once we officially started "dating" we would switch off driving. Every other weekend I would go his way and stay with his parents. When I wasn't there, he came to Apopka and stayed at my parents house. We spent the majority of our time sitting on the porch talking. I never thought I could fall for somebody so fast!

Can't Get Enough of this Everyday Love
I am so thankful to having such a loving Christian husband. It is such a relief to know that whatever situation I am in, my best friend will be by my side. I have never felt such a peace as I do now. Even though my life is crazier and busier than ever, I am happier than I have ever been.
The Lord is so good in the way he designed a husband and wife.

Heaven Just Got a Little Brighter
As many of you know, Mema passed away last night. Please be in prayer for the family!




Onward to the prize before us!
Sing the wondrous love of Jesus,
Sing His mercy and His grace;
In the mansions bright and blessed
He’ll prepare for us a place.
When we all get to heaven,
What a day of rejoicing that will be!
When we all see Jesus,
We’ll sing and shout the victory!

While we walk the pilgrim pathway,
Clouds will overspread the sky;
But when trav’ling days are over,
Not a shadow, not a sigh.

Let us then be true and faithful,
Trusting, serving every day;
Just one glimpse of Him in glory
Will the toils of life repay.
Onward to the prize before us!
Soon His beauty we’ll behold;
Soon the pearly gates will open;
We shall tread the streets of gold.

Red, White & Blue
We planned on going to watch fireworks at the Brandon Blast with Adam, Kendall and Luke...but after getting there and walking in the rain we realized it was cancelled. Bummer! So We left and bought fireworks to make our OWN entertainment. We spent the rest of the evening visiting and shooting off fireworks. Enjoy the show!
