Graduation!!! November 1st, 2008

YEAH MILES!!!!

OFFICIALLY FINISHED WITH HIS MA IN BIBLICAL STUDIES

My Parents and the Custis Family including Miles cousins Kate and Will Custis came up for the celebrations. Andrea and Jason and the kids were all there as well. It was wonderful having everyone here with us. Mom Custis made a beautiful Red Velvet Cake (Miles' favorite) and after the ceremonies we went out to eat at Milestones in BC. Besides being our favorite restraunt in BC we thought it was appropriate being a huge milestone in our lives the restraunt was a very YUMMY choice!

I am so proud of you, Miles.
This is such a huge accomplishment and you should be very proud of all you have done!
I know it is tough to celebrate when this is just the means to yet more schooling as the end goal is still out there to be reached, but it is a victory none the less! It is very exciting..and it will be exciting to walk with you through the next steps too - whatever you decide that will be!

4 YEARS!

YEAH! October 15th 2008 marked our four year wedding anniversary! Incredible. It is so unbelievable that it has been that long. Everyone said that the years would go by fast but I though that everyone just "says that"...now I know that it is in fact- quite true.

Miles and I have a really wonderful anniversary tradition. Our dear friends Sam and Christy Thomas gave us a book for our wedding that works as a journal of our years together on our anniversaries to mark each year that goes by. We usually write in our book that goes through all the places we went, things going on during our “times” like current events, what we have learned, and what God has done for us…as well as dreams for our future…each year. We also take a picture of us usually and put that in the book too. That is our anniversary tradition…and we have been faithful to it every year so far…hopefully that trend will continue because it is pretty neat to look back even over the last 3 years as well as this past one (4) and see how far we have come. You know? Miles and I also have a project for above my kitchen cabinets. We want to go through our black and white photos to select the ones we want to display then we will go to Michaels and get as many frames as we can and stick in the pictures and put them above the cabinets. Not sure how it will look yet…but I think it might be cool….the best part…Miles is stoked about it. He is so excited. I love that he likes that sort of thing.

He is so proud that his pictures get to go up there…and he does a great job. So that is our anniversary in a nutshell.
