In celebration of 8 years of wedded bliss (let's be honest, it's not all bliss, but it is an amazing journey!) Brent and I packed up, dropped the kiddos of at Grandma & Grandpa's and headed north to the highly recommended location of South Haven, Michigan. We really had no idea what to expect. A quaint town by the water, but that's about it. It did not disappoint! It was so beautiful and relaxing. We wanted to go somewhere that we didn't feel like we had to tour and do a whole bunch of stuff. This is the place to go for that. We ate, laid on the beach, rode bikes and watched movies. This was the longest we had been away from the kiddos. We missed them, BUT I can't say we didn't enjoy the time away alone. :)

A shout out to the grandparents. This was a huge blessing to Brent & I to be able to get away. It was a very long summer with him being out of town. Time away was quite refreshing. Looking at my last post, I am realizing how much refreshment I need. :) I heard a quote the other day that I LOVED. "Marriage isn't hard, life is." Marriage would be so easy if life was too. To all of you in the midst of life, I am praying for you, because I'm pretty sure I have felt or am feeling exactly how you are now.
