9 months...

today sandi and i celebrate 9 months of being married to each other! it was a wonderful day of rest (after a long week), and recounting God's gracious presence and great provision in our lives. as we noted before, the past nine months have seemed to pass both quickly and slowly at the same time...but more quickly than slowly. it's hard to believe that soon we will have been married and living in Reading, PA for one year.

here we are outside our home, right after church...



of course, no anniversary celebration would be complete without an enjoyable meal. we decided on sushi. it was a good choice!

and desert: tempura fried ice cream (with azuki ice cream!!) ...was ono!!

we thank God for sustaining and faithfully building our marriage on the wonderful foundation of his truth. we know we are stronger because of him! thank you for the part you have played and continue to play in caring for us through your encouragement, wisdom, prayers, cards and letters, friendship, care packages, and counsel. we are better because of you.

may you have a blessed week!

Mahalo...
