Scott and Carrie on their wedding day, September 9, 1978
Hi Friends, Today my husband Scott and I are celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary. What a milestone! We are grateful to God for the love and grace he has showered on us and for the strength and wisdom He provides each day.
Marriage is not for sissies! It takes committment and determination to work through differences and overcome challenges. But with faith in God and a desire to follow His principles for marriage and family life He can help you build a strong and healthy marriage and family. I am blessed to be married to a godly man like Scott. His devotion to God and faithful heart are very unique in an age when so many men are self-focused and not interested in spiritual matters.
I admire Scott for so many reasons. He is a diligent student of God’s Word and is always looking for practical ways to live out those principles and help others do the same. I am the blessed recipient of much of the wisdom he has absorbed from all those years of teaching the Word each Sunday. He is the real deal . . . the same at home as he is in the pulpit. He speaks the truth in love and is encouraging and supportive. He cheers me on when I am successful, and he listens and sympathizes when I’ve had a rough day. That’s love.
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:4–8
So Happy Anniversary, honey! Thanks for thirty-five great years together!
Thank you Honey! Those are sweet words. I love you!
Love you too!
happy Anniversary to you both. You are such a blessing
in my life as well.
love mom and dad
Thanks, Mom! You and Dad have always been a great example to us. Thanks for leading the way!
Happy Anniversary
I read the first two books of your Edwardian brides series as audiobooks. I am just starting the third book, but I seem to have missed the wedding of William and Julia. In which book and which chapter does that occur?
Hi Debbie, thanks for checking in with that question about William and Julia’s wedding. I wrote those books more than ten years ago, and I honestly can’t remember if I featured their wedding or not. I know book two is set in 1912 and book three is in 1915 after WW1 has started. I think their wedding was between books two and three. Julia might look back on it in book three. Thanks for being a faithful reader/listener to my books!
