A little history of us

So here's a glimpse of our changing lives over the past couple of years...

We love Jesus. He is the center of our marriage, and we are thankful for His abundant blessings in our lives, for His unending love, and for His saving grace. We seek to follow God and seek His will for our lives. He brought us together and will keep us strong as we go through all of life's ups and downs together.

We love our families and friends. We are blessed to have dear friends with whom we can pick up right where we left off, despite not seeing them for long periods of time. We are both blessed to have grown up in Christian homes and to have had lots of fun with our families over the years.

Wedding in Philly with the Steeds

We love UVa. We met there, got engaged there, and got married there. We love the grounds, the traditions, and all of our friends who helped us make so many great memories there. We still go to most of the football games, even though we are envious of our SEC friends who get to experience tailgating the way it should be and watch good football all season long. Our dog, who will undoubtedly be making regular appearances on the blog, is named Jefferson (not entirely for the University's founder but I guess it goes with the UVa thing).

We're married...yay!!!

Veritas Winery, our beautiful reception site

That brings us to the present, where we are currently trying to figure out our next steps, but in the midst of all the craziness, we are very happy together and look forward to God's plan for the future.
