Thank you everyone for taking this journey over the last year with us. As you know we are coming up in just a few weeks of being married for one year. We got married during the Covid pandemic after trying for a short amount of time to plan a wedding, but things just didn't seem to be falling into place and nobody could predict where we would be a year from then! So, we started this life together and thought that maybe after a year we could start planning this awesome time with all our family and friends to come together and celebrate our love and commitment together. However, this pandemic and current life challenges have us facing other plans. As we started this adventure over the last year, we chose to grow our family and create more love into our home. Unfortunately, that just wasn't God's plan for us right now as we said goodbye to our little baby. We're not sure when things are going to slow down or be safe for everyone to come together to celebrate our love. We've been stuck in the mindset that we needed a big wedding to kick off our marriage and wanted to wait for that moment before we could take a honeymoon. But this past year has taught us that life doesn't wait and our marriage has already grown so much. We know we will have a celebration in the future, but with the uncertainty around covid, we can't ask our friends and family to risk their health and safety for a wedding right now.

So, rather than continue to focus on a large gathering, we are focusing on enjoying our love and our marriage. It is with that renewed focus on our marriage and continuing to grow together that we have decided to take a honeymoon to reflect on this first year of marriage and prepare for many more to come. Even though we can't be with all of you right now, you are in our hearts. Please feel free to give a gift towards our honeymoon or simply leave a comment or note of love and encouragement.
