If you could see what I see

15 years ago today I married Lanny.  I was young, he wasn't so much (haha!) and when we got to the part in our vows about "richer or poorer" we snickered because we knew it would always be the poorer!  HA!!  And, well, it has been but that's beside the point.  :)  

Before we started dating I had heard this song and I knew that whoever I married this was the song that would describe me and my intended perfectly...and it does.  When Lanny and I started dating we decided things quickly.  2 weeks after our first date we decided to get married.  By the time he proposed officially to me on May 6, 1995 we already had the wedding completely planned!  I mean dress bought, bridesmaids dresses bought, photographer booked, venue booked, etc!  We had bought our rings less than one month after our first date.  Lanny and I had the privilege of knowing each other for a couple of years prior to dating so we already knew where this was headed when we finally got brave enough to take it to the next level. 

Our good friend, Dale, sang this song at our wedding.  The clip I've included is the original group singing it and someone put their own wedding pics to it.  But I couldn't find any other clip that seemed right so there you go!  HA!  And this version does have the lyrics.  Geoff Moore & The Distance sang this tune and I'm so grateful!  After all these years I still love it and it still holds true for Lanny and I.

The Feast of Firstfruits & Easter Go for Broke Day If it scares you this is the day to go for it no matter what. One Day Without Shoes Day Today is to raise global awareness for children’s health and education.  Why shoes? Because shoes help protect from bacteria in the dirt, rusty nails, dirty needles and shoes enable feet to withstand the long distances most children in developing countries need to walk to get to school. Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
