36 Wonderful Years!

On this day, thirty-six years ago, I married my best friend! Thirty-six years have gone by fast! We have changed alot over the years. We learned how to give and share, how to compromise and forgive, how to love someone else as ourselves, how to overlook another's weaknesses and share in their strengths and we have shared many dreams and hopes. I am so thankful for being able to share all these things with Rick, a wonderful man, my sweetheart, who has given me thirty-six great years!

Here are some things I love about Rick:

I love his sincerity and humility,

His honesty

His hard work ethic(although I complain about the long work hours),

His diligence in whatever his sets about to do,

I love how he is patient and understanding (Especially with my mistakes)

I love seeing him play with his grandchildren(They each have a special place in his heart-it's fun to see how they light up when they see him!),

I love that he so enjoys talking to his grown children and finding out how they are doing in their lives and careers,
I love that he takes time to ask how my day has gone even after all these years.


I love that he always brings me flowers! (There's 36 Roses for 36 years!)


Happy Anniversary, Rick
I Love You!

Happy Birthday, Joy!


Joy is a such a great daughter-in-law. We have enjoyed her in our family and have been blessed with the spirit she brings. I love that she likes to call us Dad and Mom B. and has from when she first married Eric. She is so considerate and kind and has always shown her appreciation and love for those around her and in her family. Joy is a wonderful and very supportive wife, supporting Eric in his many hours of schooling and church work. She is a cute and fun mom and is so patient with little Olivia. We are excited for the new little one coming in a few months and know Joy will be a great mother to a little son, also.
Happy Birthday, Joy!
We Love You!
