    God Bless The Broken Road That Lead Me Straight to YOU!!!

     

    My Baby and I have been through it all during the short time we have been together, but God has truly blessed us through the storms. From the death of Donnie's Father in 2010, to an F-5 tornado tearing our house apart in 2011, and the constant health concerns we face everyday with his mother, Donnie and I have stayed strong in our Faith to prove God is Good all the time! The card may be simple in design, but it really represents how two people came together and created a love story to last a life time!
