eighty more to go...

today Chase and I are celebrating our ONE year anniversary! We cannot believe how fast it has flown by! We have had a wonderful first year and look forward to 80 + more years!! 

I have always heard people say, "I am more in love with my husband today than I was when we got married..." and I always wondered what that would feel like... I can honestly say that that statement is 100 % true. I think this is because we know each other on such a different level now- Chase has seen me in my worst and my best days, has seen me steal covers in the nights, has seen me get stressed out when I haven't had time to clean in a week, has seen me not like Paige at all and then the next minute love her to death, he has seen me when I am consistently spending time with the Lord and when I have gone through dry seasons.... We have traveled overseas together and have decided with the help of our Savior that we want to move there and share Christ with those who don't know him - this is a huge reason I love him more today... I love seeing his desire to see the lost come to know Jesus, his drive to research how to do business overseas, his heart to meet with the lost here in lubbock, his desire to pray with me to seek the Lord for direction and answers. There is so much more I could write about, but I am just going to say that I have LOVED my first year as a McGough and I still get butterflies when I get called, "Chase's Wife"! 

I love you Chase Matthew- thanks for a wonderful first year!

Thank-you for loving my son so much, but I know he would say he "loves you more".....and, we McGough's love you and love having you as a New McGough, STILL (even though Paige isn't your favorite dog from time-to-time). Watching you two grow in your faith, your love for the Lord and for each other is such a blessing.

Love you both so very much!
