This week's edition of Show and Tell Tuesday is How I Met My Mate.
I remember the day my roommate called to ask if I wanted to go to the Mid South Fair that Friday night, & I said sure. Before we went, we met at her parents house & a friend from church came & brought his roommates. One of the roommates was Avery. We went to the Mid South Fair that night & they call came over afterwards & stayed really late. I remember Avery & I talking quite a bit that night. We had an instant connection.
After 3 1/2 years of being best friends & me preparing to move to Singapore for 2 years with the International Mission Board, Avery suggested we get married. And so we did, 3 weeks later.
This May we will celebrate 17 years. I don't have pictures from the "early days" on my computer, and as we all know, we didn't have the technology then which also encouraged taking as many pictures then!
This is from 2009 at a cruise port. Two of my favorite things...Avery & cruises!
So this is from a cruise too, but one of my favorite funniest pictures. It totally looks like Avery is missing a leg and has a cane. We had just finished playing putt-putt on the cruise ship and asked someone to take our picture.
This was taken in Halifax, Nova Scotia (we took a cruise there too :))

And one of my favorites....here we are from our 10 year Vow Renewal. That was one of the sweetest times of our marriage, celebrating with our daughters, family, & friends.
