Decade Challenge

Can you believe we are coming up on a new decade?

I am still in shock it’s almost the end of the year.

Have you seen the decade challenge going around social media?

I know I’m a few weeks late, but thought I would join in on the fun!

Here is me and Chris 10 years ago:

And us now:

All four of us then and now:

Elizabeth then and now:

Emily then and now:

It’s so crazy to look back on all the changes in this past decade:

We have moved houses 4 times.

We have each had a job change. (Still all teaching but different subjects and grade levels)

We lost my dad.

We lost Chris’s mom.

Chris lost both grandpas.

Liz was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

Emily was diagnosed with dyslexia.

We’ve gone on wonderful trips together as a family.

We’ve played multiple board games for family nights.

We have loved stronger and harder than ever.

Through every good and bad thing, we’ve learned to praise God and rely on Him for our strength.

It’s fun to think and dream about this next decade.

In 10 more years, Chris and I will celebrate 25 years of marriage.

We will be close to retirement and hopefully know where we will want to settle down and retire at.

Elizabeth will be 23 and Emily 22. WOW!

So many great things in store!

Here’s to a new decade! I look forward to seeing what it brings.

I pray it’s our best decade yet!

Hope your Saturday is great.
