Sixth anniversary!

Andrew and Sabrina got married six years ago today. When I did a little write-up last year about their anniversary, I told everyone LAST year was their sixth anniversary ... so this feels like a rerun!
I've been looking and looking through hundreds of pictures trying to find a good recent shot of Andrew and Sabrina ... I finally found these that Grandpa Jones snapped at Sea World ... but that is all we have of these two! I have tons of pictures of Sabrina with children, and quite a few of Andrew with children, but not just the two of them together! Grandpa and I get distracted with playing with and taking pictures of the grandchildren and then we forget about everyone else ... grandparents are obnoxious like that!
Actually, Jackson is in both of these pictures, but he is still such a little guy that he doesn't show up. Perhaps the reason we don't have many pictures, is because last year we only saw their family on two separate trips to Texas ... they never came home to Michigan even once! That is about to change in a little less than three weeks. They are all coming "home" for a friend's wedding and also for Emily's baby shower the following weekend. I'm going to have to concentrate and get some nice pictures of them this time around.

The following passage of Scripture is what Andrew and Sabrina chose to put on their wedding announcements and was the theme of their wedding ...

"Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and sympathetic? Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one heart and purpose." Philippians 2:1 and 2

We are thinking of you with love today, Andrew and Sabrina, and praying this coming year will overflow with everyday blessings that come from working together and loving each other.
