Today marks my 5-year wedding anniversary to the love of my life. I believe we are a picture of God's grace, and what it looks like in the context of marriage.

He brought us together for a purpose. We are living that out day-to-day.

This is dedicated to my best friend...

Hanniel,

We've made it to our 1st 5 years babe. Feels like our 1st milestone as a married couple. I love this time of year. It reminds me of the day I unreservedly made a public covenant with you and God. Feels like  it was last week.

 I am so grateful for your smiles, your jokes, your "victory dances", your super tight hugs where you endeavor to "fuse us together"; I'm grateful for how nervous you always get for me right before a performance and how you HAVE to watch ALL my videos, even though you helped film them. Most of all, I am grateful for you; your strength of character is resilient & you are such a natural born leader; my leader. 

These last 5 years have helped me understand why LOVE has absolutely nothing to do with feelings.
 
Love is sacrifice. Love is forgiveness. Love is respect. Love is endurance. Love is discipline. Love is submission.


  Love can be ugly one day and bloom the next.


We have LOVE.

Because we have love, we have God. And because we have God, we have everything. 

Happy Anniversary to my knight in shining armor.   

I LOVE you. 

Yours Forever,

Ker-Leen

Hi guys, 

This is just a quick blog post. I had an awesome day today and wanted to share the highlights with you all!!

Joe and I started the day with God, a nice run, brunch, and a b-boy battle at Crossover Church in 

Tampa, Fl.

BTW: These photos were taken with my iPhone; which is why the quality looks different.

See you all in the next post! 

XOXO,

So it wouldn't have been a proper business trip without some rest and relaxation! I'm so glad that my family was only 45 minutes away because it was so nice to see them!

Got a chance to see my sister!! :)

Loving the texture in her outfit. ;)

The house where we stayed was on the water, so the backyard was absolutely lovely. We grilled steaks and had eggs with them on one of our mornings there. There was also a nice hot tub in the back yard, which the hubby and I quickly took advantage of!

Before we left Miami we payed a visit to the Bal Harbour Shops. Because it's an outdoor mall we got to bring Prince with us. He had a blast.

One of my favorite shots! :) My hubby has skills with the camera. :)

                                        They had a live tank in the ground with fish and turtles. So pretty!

The way the trees are landscaped made this mall into a lush, tropical, shopping oasis. It was so beautiful we decided to grab lunch before hitting the road.

I had a fantastic time in Miami...I always enjoy going there because there is ALWAYS something to do! Can't wait 'til next time! :)

XOXO,
