Our Celebration

Richard and I went to Hot Springs for our anniversary. I was very excited to be away with just him and have time to focus on us. We stayed in a wonderful B and B called Lookout Point Lakeside Inn. I recommend it if you want a wonderful, relaxing time away but don't want to go far. We ate great food, explored Garvin Woodland Gardens (another recommendation!) and we spent half a day at a day spa. We had a hydrotherapy bath (really a whirlpool bath), a 50 minute massage, lunch, a facial, manicure and a pedicure. The guy that did Richard's facial asked what he uses to cleanse his face. When Richard answered "regular soap" (we use safegaurd) the guy said "you must have good genes". Then when Richard was getting his pedicure the girl doing the pedicure told him he had the softest feet. She asked him if he wanted a clear coat on his toenails...I vetoed that before Richard could even answer :D We had such a great time together. I'm so thankful to the Lord for bringing us together and for giving us the grace to grow together. I'm also thankful to those people the Lord has used in our lives to encourage us in our lives as husband and wife. Now here are a few photos of our time in Hot Springs.

Twenty Years Ago Today

I received a great gift from the Lord. The Lord's grace is amazing.
