Have fun on a scavenger hunt, finding where we put them throughout the wedding and the reception.
Animals have come to mean so much in our lives. We live in a fragmented and disconnected culture. Politics are ugly, religion is struggling, technology is stressful, and the economy is unfortunate. Whats one thing that we have in our lives that we can depend on? A dog loving us unconditionally, every day, very faithfully. – Jon Katz, American journalist, author, and photographer

Chad and I were introduced because we both have a passion for dogs. We love the unconditional love a dog can give. Both of us have been through many frogs, and when we met each other, we instantly knew something was different.
The more I spent time with Chad and got to know him, the more I realized I considered Him A Life Partner (TEAM CRISP). Thinking of him makes me smile. I have never had a man who bent over backward to make sure I was understood and loved. One thing about Chad and I is that we both have big hearts, and many frogs have broken those hearts & taken advantage of us. Once we got past the fact that each other was not a frog, we could open our hearts, the barriers fell, and I finally found out what faithful Love ❤️ felt like, especially when my partner felt the same way. Feelings of love can activate our brain’s reward system—a connection so strong that it can be scary at first, but once those barriers are down, its the best feeling in the entire world. God knew what he was doing when he brought Chad into my life. For over 26 years, I have always put the Marine Corps first because I knew it would not fail me. If I could provide for myself, I didnt need a man. When I met Chad, he let me know. A woman doesnt drive, and a man pays for the bills on our dates. He opens the door and always makes sure Im taken care of. I was blown away because that is how my Dad treats my Mother. I was brought up this is how you treat a lady & finally, it was happening to me.
I am very strong-willed and dont need help, but he quickly showed me that I do need help because he loves me.

Chad & I’s song:
I was lost
You found a way to bring me back
Needed forgiveness
You always gave me that
Girl, Im a witness of your love
Cause you dont be giving up
And its crazy
How you saved me
Hand on the Bible
Dont know how I got you
But I couldnt ask for more
Girl, what we gots worth thanking God for
So, thank God
I get to wake up by your side
And thank God
Your hand fits perfectly in mine
And thank God
You loved me when you didnt have to
But you did and you do, and he knew
Thank God for giving me you
Thank God
Thank God for giving me you
Never thought Id find an angel undercover
Who made a change to everything
From my heart to my last name
Hey, hard to tell
When he fell
That boy was Heaven sent
And every night
When I close my eyes
Before I say amen
I thank God
I get to wake up by your side
And thank God
Your hand fits perfectly in mine
And thank God
You loved me when you didnt have to
But you did and you do, and he knew
Thank God for giving me you
Thank God
Thank God, (yeah, yeah)
Thank God, (oh)
Hand on the bible
Dont know how I got you
I couldnt ask for more
Girl, what we gots worth thanking God for
So, thank God
I get to wake up by your side
And thank God
Your hand fits perfectly in mine
And thank God
You loved me when you didnt have to
But you did and you do and, he knew
Thank God for giving me you

Thank God, yeah, yeah
Thank God
