LOVE at River Valley Church

We are "loving" our new study at RVC! We have been studying the Song of Solomon. Now honestly, I always thought it was a little mushy, but have gotten so much out of this study! We would love for any of you to join us! You can also listen online at www.rvcfresno.com.

15 years!!

February 5th was our 15 year anniversary!! It is hard to believe that time could go so fast, but even harder to remember life without Eric! Although the trends have changed, (Jessica McClintock floral bridesmaid dresses, and a strong 'mauve' wedding color scheme) we don't look exactly like we did 15 years ago, and life was a whole lot simpler...I wouldn't change one thing. I am amazed that I truly am more in love today, than I was on that February afternoon.

Here are 15 reasons that I love my hubby!

1. He's my best friend

2. He is an awesome, Godly leader of our house

3. He has given me the most perfect 4 boys

4. He is a wonderful father

5. He doesn't judge

6. He's wise with money...even when I'm not

7. He is a hard worker

8. He "gets" me!

9. He is a visionary

10. He is a hottie

11. He knows how to have a good time

12. He is positive

13. He is strong

14. He never complains about things not done

15. He loves me. :)

Thank you Eric for the best 15 years of my life...I can't wait for many more!

A New Favorite

Eric and I got a chance to go out for our anniversary last night, and we wanted to try a new (to us) place. I have seen the Daily Grill at Palm and Nees, but didn't know exactly what it was. Coffee shop, casual, healthy? While driving around trying to pick a place, I googled it on my phone and it sounded good, and right up the alley of what we were looking for.

We were very pleasantly surprised! It was very quaint, but chic too! The food was amazing! A little pricey, but not bad at all. Eric had lamb shanks, and I had a blackberry pork chop. I just kept telling Eric, I can't believe how hot (temperature) everything was! They also had a peach and strawberry cobbler with ice cream for dessert! YUM! Ok, seriously, I'm going to jump on the treadmill right after I submit this!!!
