Happy Anniversary Baby....March 18th

We have been on an amazing adventure the past week and didn't have good internet connection so couldn't update blog. Even though we hoped to update, it has been a blessing to pull away from technology and enjoy special time with friends and "family" here.

Last week ~

On March 18th, Charles and I celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary! When we talked about a special weekend trip last fall to celebrate our anniversary, we had no idea we would be making a trip to China. How wonderful to be here in the country where we became parents twelve years ago to celebrate our silver anniversary!

Charles surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers! Tuesday evening celebration dinner was more special than we could have planned! Duck Restaurant in Luoyang was the location and we were joined by the Martins, Renichs, Rita and JonaLyn who are special friends who work at Maria's Big House of Hope. Dinner was served at a huge round table in a private room with so many dishes of delicious Chinese food! What a special celebration of our love for each other and where God has led us through these years.
