Today is our silver anniversary! 🤍 25 years!
Don’t miss the full video of how it started 😂❤️

Andy and I met when we were 18 years old. Neither of us was looking for a serious relationship, so when we met, after he had already received his mission call to Moscow, Russia, we thought we were safely in the clear.
We figured we would date, have fun together, and then he would leave on his mission.

Well…in addition to dating and having fun, we fell in love. Very quickly.
We dated for about two months before he left.
We didn’t expect to fall in love.
We didn’t expect to write to each other every week for two years. (We still have every letter!)
And we definitely didn’t expect to be married within seven months of him coming home.
Nobody expected it, but that is exactly what happened. I feel incredibly lucky that we found each other when we did.

Marrying Andy was the best decision of my life.
Andy has the qualities I truly need in a life partner. He is one of the most forgiving people I have ever known. He has a rare ability to look beyond the difficult parts of people and focus on the good in them. I have been the recipient of his patient, accepting, nonjudgmental way of loving, and I have definitely needed that!

He is such a calming and peaceful presence in my life. He brings out the best in me and loves me with all of my flaws, complexity, and humanness. I love to see how much passion is inside of him. When he chooses to do something, he does it all the way and is so dedicated. He works incredibly hard for the things he cares about, somehow while maintaining a sense of calm that is completely unmatched.

His infectious laugh was one of the first things that caught my attention…along with his stunning blue eyes, easygoing personality, humility, and sense of humor.
As I got to know him, I discovered his fierce loyalty, honesty, trustworthiness, deep love for all things good, and commitment to God.

25 years later, Andy is still the perfect life partner for me.
I love him so much, and I am so grateful for the beautiful and fulfilling life we have created together. He has taken such good care of me over the years and I can’t wait for all that is still to come!

My first baby girl moved out today. It is so exciting and surreal, and kinda sad at the same time. She’s ready. She has been ready for years. Syd has always been the kid that hung with the adults, that understood adult things at a young age, and was always beyond her years. She is an old soul. She found some friends to move into an apartment with and is killing it in her 19 year old life! I am SO proud of her! Love you Syd!!! Come visit :)
