Marriage

I believe marriage is an incredible blessing from the Lord! As of today, John Mark and I have been married for a whole year and a half! Since I didn't have a blog during the first year of marriage, I thought I would take the time now to recap some of my thoughts and highlights from our first year and a half of marriage.

First, I must tell you a little bit about my husband. These are just a few of the words that describe who he is to me (in no particular order).

John Mark is:

Husband, Best Friend, Handsome, Leader, Hard Worker,

Disciplined, Passionate, Christ-follower, Disciple, Disciple Maker,

Coach, Prayer Warrior, Fighter, Dedicated, Clean, 

Committed, Wise, Important, Obedient, Brave,

Healthy, Athletic, Loving, Patient, Good,

Faithful, Fun, Family, Stylish, Funny, Organized...

As you have read, John Mark is an amazing man and I am blessed to call him My Husband. God made him perfectly for Himself and for me. I can not say enough, how thankful I am for him in my life. I thank God every day for John Mark and for the man of God that he is. A year and a half of marriage has flown by and I can not wait to see what God has in store for the rest of our lives together!

It's impossible to talk about every memory made and all the fun times we have spent together being married so far, SO...here are my Top 10 Most Memorable Moments with John Mark, from the past year and a half:

1. Our Wedding Day - Best Single Day
2. Honeymoon to the Dominican Republic - Best Trip
3. Christmas 2010 - Greatest Holiday Memories
4. Georgia Half Marathon  - Coolest/Craziest Acheivement
5. Beach Trip to Ocean Isle - Best Vacation
6. Date Night at Beacon Heights - Most Memorable Date Night
7. One Year Anniversary Trip to Gatlinburg - Best Anniversary (the only won we've had so far)
8. Valentine's Day - Most Romantic Date Night
9. Citizenship Celebration - Greatest Surprise (thank you John Mark!)
10. Every Day waking up next to John Mark is one of my favorite things in the world!
