15 years

Last night I had a wonderful date in Seattle with Josiah, Jeremiah, and  Megan. We ate a quick bite at MOD Pizza then walked to Pike's Place. It was a beautiful evening. My bros and I finished the evening off by seeing Pacific Rim. Surprisingly it wasn't too bad. It wasn't my first choice for a movie, but the boys wanted to see it so I went along :)



It was my first time at the gum wall. A little unsure about it.


My longest friend.


These brothers are simply the best a girl could ask for. (and they are both still single :)


And this picture just makes me laugh.


Through out the evening I kept thinking about how grateful I am to have 2 such wonderful brothers. Tomorrow marks a 15 year anniversary for our family. 15 years ago tomorrow Josiah was diagnosed with cancer and was told he wasn't expected to live. Here he is today enjoying life. Sometimes I try to think about what life would have been like if I did not have him as my brother and I cannot even imagine life without him. He is my oldest brother and has always been there for me. He is such a caring guy who is passionate about life. I am so grateful to the Lord for letting me grow up knowing my brother and not just knowing about him. The Lord has blessed our family so much. He helped both my brother and mother beat cancer. He is so good. Today I am feeling especially grateful for my family.
