HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, FAITH AND CHAD!!

Today is Faith and Chad's anniversary! It doesn't seem possible that it has been 8 years since this beautiful bride walked down the aisle and married the man that her dad and I had prayed for since she was born.

Everything about the day was perfect.  It was a Christmas wedding complete with Christmas trees, poinsettias and lots and lots of tiny white lights and candles!  It was magical!


It has been so exciting for us as parents to watch God work in their lives in so many ways since they took that first dance!

Faith and Chad, as you embark on another year, we cannot wait to see what God is going to do in your lives! There is no limit to what God can do with a couple that is "sold out" to Him like the two of you are!

We love you more than words can say and could not be any prouder of the two of you! 

We pray a special blessing on you as you celebrate this special day!  May God grant you both the desires of your heart!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, Faith and Chad!

The way you talk about your family is so heart-warming. Congratulations, Chad and Faith. (I prayed for y'all this morning!)

Emilie,
What beautiful pictures. I do not have a daughter, but I await the day my son finds the mate that we have prayed for him, and the joy that day will bring.

What a GREAT couple. Praying for their miracle to happen.

Love you sweet friend,

Oh Mimi, you are the sweetest Mommy ever and I love this post. Most of all I loved how it is so recognizable that Faith and Chad are "sold out" to God! What an awesome thing for someone to say about others.

I am telling you now...if you lived closer, I would adopt myself into the family. What a compliment to you and your husband for having such an amazing daughter.

The pictures are beautiful. What a beautiful bride and handsome groom. I join you in thanking God for His faithfulness to bring the two of them together. How refreshing to see a young couple like this so close in their walk with God. He does indeed reward those who diligently seek Him.
Thanks for sharing!
