November is a time for expressing gratitude and today I am thankful for a wife who is intentional about investing time and energy into our marriage. A week or two ago, Sunny suggested that we get away to Mentone for a Friday / Saturday trip prior to the holidays. So that’s what we did! We had the best time making glass Christmas ornaments at Orbix Hot Glass in Fort Payne (highly recommend) and seeing the sights at the Little River Canyon Preserve. Best of all, we had lots of time to talk and laugh and listen to Christmas music even though the temperature was pushing 70 degrees!

I am so grateful God saw fit to bring Sunny into my life over 30 years ago. She showed up when I was questioning a lot of things, but she has been a constant source of encouragement and a conduit of God’s love for me. She is my favorite!
