Our 21st Anniversary

In honor of our anniversary and the different seasons of life I have got together pictures that go with the seasons of life in Ecclesiastes 3:1-8.  The pictures didn't turn out real well but I hope you enjoy anyways the seasons of our 21 years of marriage.

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under Heaven.  A time to be born

Isabella Antonia birth
 A time to die
Alex with Grandma Maria Antonia (Isabella is name after her) has gone home to be with the Lord
 A time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted

our garden last year.  Hoping to increase it with a couple more boxes soon
 A time to Kill a time to heal
Alex the knight in shining jammies on his horse ready to defeat the enemy
 A time to break down a time to break down a time to build up

My kids built their record 9 1/2 foot snowman this winter
 A time to weep
Our first trip with Alex to Island Park.  He didn't really enjoy it.
 and a time to laugh
But Alex did love to laugh.  Here he is with Grandpa
 A time to morn
Grandpa went home to be with the Lord and Grandma, mourning for us joy for them.
 a time to dance
Latisha and Alex dancing away at a wedding
 A time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together
We tried for several years to build our waterfall and finally hired someone with knowledge to do it
 A time to embrace
Alex and Latisha embracing Cassandra
 and a time to refrain from embracing (?)
A time to get up
Morning after a long night with Alex came hard for David and I.
 and a time to lose.
A time to keep a time to cast away
Me keeping my babies close after Latisha's birth
 A time to rend a time to sew
Every year we sew Christmas pjs for the family
 A time to keep silence,
our wedding we kept silent as my sister sang and we listened to my Grandpa pray over us
 A time to speak
Speaking our vows to keep
 A time to Love
Love only grows as our family grows.  Here we are with Sierra.
 a time to hate.  A time of war
My grandpa served in WW11.  They had a gun salute at his funeral. 
 A time of peace. 
There is such peace in holding a sleeping baby.  Here I am with Danika.
I am so blessed with my Husband who has loved me for 21 years and am thankful to God for my husband and our amazing gifts of children.  I love you David Happy Anniversary.
