Our 30th Anniversary!

  Yesterday, my husband and I celebrated our 30th anniversary!  We were both born into career military families.  We traveled the world before God ever put the two of us together.  Even though HE was born in Augsburg, Germany four years before my own birth in Quincy, Fl, our destiny was established.  It is amazing to me that God selected our two lives to be intertwined.  We first met at a middle school on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  I was a new 8th grade science teacher, fresh out of college.  HE was a football and basketball coach.  I must admit that I wanted nothing to do with him!  Don't get me wrong, HE was an intelligent, charming, and handsome man!  I had heard a lot about him.  In fact, when I was interviewed for my position, the principal asked if I was dating anyone.  He knew of a young coach I should meet!  At our wedding, our principal bragged that he had hired me for this young coach!  Can't do that now a days!  Why wouldn't I want to date this nice man?  W
