I married my high school sweetheart

Roger and I met in high school when I was 16 years old (he was 14) and life was never the same. For those of you who knew us in those good old days at Scottsdale Christian Academy, I’m sure you wondered often why… a) I was rocking the cradle b) young love never lasts c) what did I see in the school rebel? I guess all those years ago, I fell in love with the guy of my dreams, but never dreamed we would have the grandest adventure for 20 years! I’ve had the time of my life! What I love most of all, being married to a younger man (he’s still soooo cute) and our love DID last, and he’s still a rebel … for God! We are so excited to see what God has planned this year for our family. We are praying for big, crazy dreams! We are both reading The Circle Maker and circling and praying and dreaming! Together, we want make the year 2012 one to remember!

Today is my 20th anniversary!!!!!! I thought it would be fun to show off some crazy photos from our beginning through the years- just the “two of us” pics. It’s kinda a big deal to celebrate 20 years of marriage, so I wanted to brag just a little in this fun video titled LOVE LIKE CRAZY!

Quotes: If you want to keep growing spiritually, you need to keep stretching. How? By, going after dreams that are bigger that you are. Faith is the willingness to look foolish. Nothing honors God more than a big dream that is way beyond our ability to accomplish. The day we stop dreaming is the day we start dying. You’re never too old to go after the dreams God has put in your heart. And for the record, you’re never too young either. Age is NEVER a valid excuse. True faith celebrates before the miracle happens.– Mark Batterson, The Circle Maker
