10 Years!

It’s hard to believe that we have been married TEN years! We enjoyed our first night out alone (since we arrived in Spain) with no kids, and had a wonderful evening! We went to a restaurant in the older section of town that had a great view of the Alhambra, and we ate outside while we reminisced about our wedding day and how we have spent the years in between now and then. It was an incredibly awesome evening, and we found ourselves more in love today than ever before. Our conclusion was that while we haven’t had any time alone since arriving in Granada, the trials and stress we have gone through since we arrived have not only drawn us closer to God, but to each other as well. We are excited to spend eternity together.
Kevin surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers

Our wonderful babysitter, Sofura, a girl from Holland who is in Kevin’s class. Evan and Ellie loved her and did very well.
A few pictures from life in general…

Our two princesses- Ellie & Evan have both been enjoying Ellie’s princess clothes she received for her birthday. We’ll see how Evan feels about that when he is 16!

I'm so glad you got to have a night out to celebrate your anniversary. I hope you all enjoyed the gifts we sent for the kids' birthdays and your anniversary. We wanted you to be able to go out to eat and for the children to have a few more things for their birthdays so we sent RMM $75.00 to deposit in your account. Hope you enjoy using it! We continue to pray for you at our sewings and other times as well. May God richly bless you. Marcia (Plainview Sewing Circle)
