Happy Anniversary!

Today marks Heather and my 3 year anniversary. We have had our share of ups and downs, but I thank the Lord daily for my wife. She is such a blessing in my life and I am so thankful that I get to share each day with Heather. Over the past 3 years we have shared a lot of laughs and a lot of fun together. Here are a few pics that capture some of the highlights from the past few years. I love you Heather!
