New Season

Well, with the fall approaching, we are starting to feel the momentum pick up!  The start of school is just around the corner on August 19th (well, August 7th for me) and the new sales season is already in full swing with kick-off meetings and field days.  Our summer has had mixed emotions as Diane has had a relaxing summer reading and taking a couple of on-line classes through MU (just can't leave that place!) and Zach spent the majority of the summer stressed out because God blessed the midwest with so much rain that the rivers couldn't hold it all...and that doesn't make farmers happy!  However, throughout the summer, we were reassured with where we are in life.  We become even more connected with our church by teaching 2nd graders at Vacation Bible School, which was so much fun, and we created even stronger friendships within our church family.  We've also squeezed in a little fun at the lake, tubing, skiing, and getting rid of tan lines!  We're looking forward to more adventures in our lives this fall, especially cheering on our TIGERS!!!  MIZ-ZOU!!!

One Year Later

We have been married 1 year!  It's so hard to believe how quickly the time has gone.  After dating for 7 1/2 years before we were married, you would think that nearly 9 years into our relationship, we would have learned how to slow time down! :)  In our first year of marriage, we have went through many journeys of life: we bought a house, Zach changed jobs, we bought a new truck for the new job, made amazing new friends while strengthening old friendships, joined a new church, fought off numerous kU fans, and have fallen in love with the KC area!  We are so excited to see where God takes us in the future.  We have faith that God knows the plans he has for us and will allow us to open these gifts daily.
