A weekend to remember!

Sorry everyone, no pictures on this post and none of Melissa's fine writing because I am taking this opportunity to thank Melissa's parents, brother and Melissa for one of the best weekends I have had in a long long time! I (Matthew) am into the home stretch of this fall semester and it is going to be a doozy; but having the past weekend with Melissa and the "Weekend to Remember" marriage conference put on by Family Life was the best way I can think of to get my mind off of my studies right before hitting it hard to finish up the semester! Melissa and I had an awesome time of reconnecting and strengthening our marriage! I know many of our faithful readers have seen the fine job Melissa does with taking great pictures and keeping our friends and family up to date on our daily lives. I just wanted to quickly note how thankful I am for Melissa and the job she does of keeping both of our families and all of our friends up on our lives! She is a wonderful wife, mother and all around beautiful young woman and I am so thankful that God gas given her to me! Melissa may provide another more detailed update at some point but I just want to say thanks to Uncle Brett and all his friends for watching Cayden while we were gone, thanks to Stan and Diane De Yager for encouraging us and paying our way to the conference and thanks to Melissa for being my wife and my best friend! I love you Melissa! It was a great weekend and one I will remember for a long time!

I am so glad you guys got to go that conference! Hearing about your experience makes me want to go even more now. I've heard it's just the best. Glad you guys got to have a good weekend together before the end of the semester. We'll be praying for you, Matthew.
