Our first Anniversary!

Thank you all for the kind words on our anniversary. The Lord has been very, very good to us as a still-new family. Looking back one year ago, you might enjoy watching the highlights from our wedding and reception: S&RL, 6 Nov 2009

For our one-year anniversary, we enjoyed a wonderful weekend away near the beach in Southern California thanks to the generosity of our kind friends. More photos after the jump…

    Congratulations, Rebecca and Steven! I still remember the comment I left at The Serven Clan a couple of years ago, about how you were an encouragement for me to wait patiently while living “in my father’s house”. And look, now it’s been one year since your wedding… It’s so nice to witness real-life fairytales, knowing that your own is waiting for you somewhere in the future! The Lord is faithful indeed, through joy and pain alike.

    Oh, Happy (late) anniversary! It has been so wonderful to watch the Lord working in your lives this past year! May He bless you with many more anniversaries!

    Did you meet at a dance?

    We did, indeed, meet at a dance! And, we met because of two friends who met at another dance.

    You two are just so cute! I love the candle photo — I love that Rebecca is wearing her veil! Did she wear the dress, too?

    And we are big Thai food fans here (in Seattle) — that soup looks de-lish!

    Happy Anniversary!

    Steven and Rebecca,

    It was a blessing to visit together this weekend – thank you so much for the visit. We are blessed to see God lead you both together in marriage for the furtherance of His Kingdom! Thank you for laboring for His glory. The hymn you composed, Rebecca, is beautiful! The recording is playing right now!

    Blessings,
    The Bryant Family
