Looking back

Can you believe it? It has been yet another year! God has certainly blessed us and has given us so many things and blessings this year. We have had our struggles like everyone else but we really have enjoyed our lives and can't wait to see what God is going to do next!


January
We moved to Red Bud! I made a promise to Sara that once I started working at JMM, we would move to Red Bud. We are still enjoying our home and hope to purchase it soon.

We lost Sara's grandmother to cancer this month. She accepted the Lord shortly before her passing. Sara went into pre-term labor the week before after we went to St. Louis to celebrate our anniversary.
