 2018 was a packed year. My traveling schedule was the fullest it has ever been. My family grew and changed in what seemed like overnight. My love for people and God’s bride, the church, grew in ways I never thought possible. Yet, in the midst of the hustle and bustle, the precious and quiet moments with my husband and family will be treasured most. There are so many memories to choose from, so many stories in between, that twelve photos hardly does this year justice. Regardless, enjoy a trip down memory lane with me.  JANUARY 2018- I met one of my Compassion International Children that we sponsor in the Dominican Republic. It really was life changing!  FEBRUARY 2018- My eldest son, Chris, was married to Tracie! Our family officially starts to grow.  MARCH 2018- The Aspire Tour had their first ASPIRE Women's Event Cruise and my husband was able to come along!  APRIL 2018- My husband came on tour with me and we were reconnected with family. His little Maria, who lived with us as a 5 year old, grew up and got to see her Uncle Bob again!  MAY 2018- I was home to celebrate my husband's Birthday! Moments home with family are treasured up in my heart.  JUNE 2018- I sang at a 3 day Music Festival. But, even more special, was that my husband and children were there with me. Most of what I do is on the road. Such a blessing!  JULY 2018- My middle child, Aaron, was wed to Eva in Iowa. Wedding number two this year. The family continues to grow!  AUGUST 2018- My Mom came to visit us and was able to see me record in the studio. A new experience for her; a blessing for me.  SEPTEMBER 2018- I spoke at the Grand Canyon University Arena Chapel. What a blessing to share with the student body and faculty!  OCTOBER 2018- My baby, and last of three, Miriam married her sweetheart, Pedro, after the long process of getting him into the USA from Brazil. Three children - Three weddings - One year - Blessed!  NOVEMBER 2018- I finished off a year of touring with the Aspire Women's Event Team. I met so many amazing women across the country. Ready for 2019 to do it all over again!  DECEMBER 2018- We closed out 2018 celebrating our Silver Anniversary, 25 years of marriage to my love, Bob. Thankful!

AuthorAs an imperfect servant of the Lord, I often feel I am fumbling my way through life, looking upward for guidance and outward to love. So, I write about it, to break up the noise in my head. Categories
