Simple Invitations to celebrate

Hi all, where has time gone!! its almost the end of the year with our youngest finished yr 10 and our two older young adults finishing their first and second year of Uni !! our little family is certainly moving on in different directions. So we told the kids our Christmas surprise when they were up on the weekend! we will be hiring a house boat for a whole week over Christmas on our local Nambucca river, fishing 24/7, swimming and relaxing together, couldn't think of anything better :) and we also had one other surprise. Dave and I will be recommitting our marriage together in a small get-together of a few close friends on a dock down the river and will have the house boat for the last night. We have spent the last three years working through past problems and hurts with a great christian counselor which we will be ever grateful for. We also discovered along the way that some of our happiness moved out with the kids and we had to get it back. Our faith in a God who ever cares and love us has paid off we know now we can face the years to come without our kids at home with joy and happiness and a love and respect for one another. So these are the invites we sent out and some glass tags we made..... very simple but elegant, you can also watch the video below on how i made these and I hope you may get some ideas from them..... enjoy
Blessings to you


and a last thought

“You will seek me and find me when you search for me with all your heart”
(Jeremiah 29:13, NIV)

    Oh Valita, you gave me goosebumps!!! What a wonderful way to spend time together as a family, and what an awesome idea for you and Dave to recommit your wedding vows.
    When my 2 oldest moved out of the house, they were my everything, and I felt empty and alone, despite the fact I still have 2 kids at home under age 12.
    Hubby & I saw a highly recommended christian counsellor too, for well over a year (travelling 2.5 hrs one way, just to see him). We still have trouble connecting like we used to, but I learned so much through counselling that I'm confident it'll all work out.
