Honeymoon in Michigan!

We had a wonderful honeymoon in Michigan. Thanks to Dad and Jeanine, we were able to stay at a lovely hotel and see all of Derek's relatives. They even hosted a beautiful reception that included family and friends. Stephanie really enjoyed meeting Derek's family for the first time.

Another highlight of our honeymoon was spending time with Khira and Mom. We enjoyed a day at the mall and an excellent homemade meal of spaghetti and garlic bread. Yummy! Mom can really cook great meals and is willing to share her recipes with me. Thanks mom!

We got to see our bestfriend Jesse from college and meet his family. We even rode 4-wheelers which was a blast. Jesse took us on a nature hike and we enjoyed Michigan's beautiful forest. The Lord sure did a good job when he made Michigan.
The very best part was being able to enjoy one another and spending time enjoying the gift of marriage. Praise the Lord that he chose to show us himself and a picture of Christ and the church through the union of a man and a woman. How can we ever grow weary of how amazing our Great God is?
