Connected by Christ

Last night, I had the privilege of spending the evening with the ladies from my Bible study last year. 

To say the least, it was much needed and oh-so-special. 

Jessi said it best.

I seriously adore these girls. 

adore them.

Two to Tango {J and J}

The McLeods are the kind of friends everyone wants to have.

They will laugh with us

and cry with us.

They exemplify a Godly marriage,

as they place the Lord at the center of their lives.

It's been such a blessing to watch them

mold their two lives into one.

Jeremiah and Jessi, 

I love the rich love you have for one another,

and the way you show it to each other again and again.

Happy 2nd anniversary!

May this year be the best yet :-)
