10 years ago, as we stood by a young Japanese girls hospital bedside we could have never guessed the deep and meaningful relationship that God had in store for us. Over the years that young girl, Reiko, became like a daughter to us! We watched as she studied the Word and with persistence was allowed to become a Christian, she was there soon after Stone was born and when we tearfully returned to the states from Japan, we joyfully welcomed her as she began her studies at OC, and we now had the privilege to be part of the next stage of her life; her wedding. Lj had the honor of walking the bride down the aisle while I got to share with her many special moments of the week leading up to her big day. Reiko is very dear to us and it was such a pleasure to be so involved in her special day. It has been such a wonderful blessing and experience to watch her grow into such a beautiful christian woman.

congrats to Reiko!!! Great pictures!
Hi Kari! That wasn't a rant....it was probably minus about 5 sips of pure goodness!! It's really okay, I just thought it was kinda funny, and I knew it wasn't you because a boy took my money, and the girl that took my order was not Kari. I heard you met my mom, yes, we're in there all the time! Don't worry I'll be back!
I always love to look back and see at how God weaves lives together for His purpose.
