My Husband

Frank Brazell.  The sweetest man I know.  I am so thankful for him!

He takes care of me when I spend all my time working, come home and collapse from a migraine.

He makes the most superb dinners for me.

Date night is always so special!

He's so cuddly and fun!

I have so much fun with him; he really is my best friend.

His little quirks are my favorite.

I love dancing with him in the privacy of our home.

When I come home from work, or school, or anything else, he opens the door for me with a smile, saying that he's excited to see me again.

His hugs are the best!!!

When he holds me, I feel safe and snug as a bug in a rug.

He teaches me so many things I would never have learned without him.

He is so smart!  So intelligent!

He helps me with my homework, and encourages me when I feel I can't do it.

He reminds me how special I am to him, especially when I feel like I go unnoticed.

He prays for me, and he prays with me.

He leads our family with as much wisdom as he can, and calls on God for all help.

He is so special to me.

He's a silly goose!

He makes me laugh ALL the time! And cheers me up with how goofy he can be!

I just love him so much.

He reminds me every day how good he thinks I look.

He helps me see myself in a better light.

He dresses so spiffy all the time.

He's just a cool cat.

He makes me feel cool, too.

He reminds me of what God called me to be and helps me see that when times are tough.

I love the life we have together.

I love his sweetness in my life - every day.

I love our fun and crazy adventures!

I am so thankful for the blessing God has given me in him.

I love my husband, Frank.

I love the love we share.

I love the time we have together.

I love the little things we do that make us US.

My husband, Frank Brazell, is the sweetest man I know.  He loves me, and I am so thankful for him.

I love you, panky :)

Far Overdue: Our Wedding Day!

So most of you know by now that Frank and I were blissfully married in January (January 7, 2013).  I don't really know why I never posted about it, I guess because it was already all over Facebook and felt that I really didn't need to blog about it too.  Well whatever the reason, my husband and our marriage before the Lord is very very very important to me.  Why shouldn't I hare it on my blog as I do everything else?  So in case you never got to see or hear anything about our January wedding, here are some pictures and thoughts about it! (By the way, I didn't know that song until the week before I got married ;) ) (So no, I wasn't trying to have a January wedding just because the Avett Brothers sang about it ;) )

Our Grand Exit!

I love my family, new and old.  There's been a lot to learn in these past seven months.  There's been a lot of surrender on both parts, and a lot of things have changed in our personalities and the way we view the world.  Ultimately we've grown closer in our walks with God and that has let us grow closer to each other.  We have plans, but hold them loosely, understanding that it's not our plans that are important, but the Lord's.  Even that has been hard for us at times, but we know that we are walking in His Will.  August 7 will actually be our 7 month mark, and we are planning on taking 1-year anniversary photos in the next few months - be on the lookout for those!

Praise God, at the end of it all, praise Him.
