Nine months of marriage

Zach and Whitney have been married for nine months and counting!


Brandon & Michaella

  Many have asked for an update on the courting couple. They have hadm & b 2 several visits together and have spent lots of time writing, sending care packages, and thinking of each other! Brandon is super creative; when a package comes, it’s usually filled with many extra special touches that show his talent and his tender heart: gifts wrapped with ribbons and flowers, scrolls with sweet messages,  artwork, DVDs with photos and songs written to celebrate their times together…all so very sentimental and touching! This week Brandon celebrates his 25th birthday, so “Happy birthday” to a wonderful, Godly young man that has won our daughter’s heart!

A year ago!

Whitney posted today: It's been one year ago today since the love of my life flew me out to FL and asked me to marry him!!! He has been such a huge blessing in my life and I can't thank The Lord enough for allowing such a sweet, handsome, loving & Godly man to be my husband! I may be biased, but I feel like I'm the luckiest girl in the world!! I love you Zach!!!

13 years to the day!

It's been 13 years since America was attacked. So many people lost their lives and are resting in heaven with the Lord. We pray for the families that lost their loved ones. We pray for our country as we are still in the healing progress.
