The best year of our lives!

Today is a very special day for the Spearmans. One year ago, we stood before God, the one true God and created a covenant to each other in front of Him and our close family and friends.
It has been a short year, filled with so many adventures. It had it's hard times, but they are far out weighed by the blessings and joy we have experienced. God has been faithful and true to bring us past circumstance, and to focus on the true essence of Love. We cannot express to you how much we appreciate your prayers for us, we have felt them this whole year in such strong ways.

We stand here today, loving each other immeasurably more than we did only a year ago. Jesus Christ is the sole reason for this. As we have been immersing ourselves into God's word, our bibles, we have been growing more and more into the kind of Love Jesus Christ showed us on the Cross. We still have so far to go, but praise God we are not where we were a year ago.

To celebrate this occasion, we spent the whole day together. It was relaxing and peaceful. For dinner we went to the local grocery store and partook in one of our favorite hobbies: Shopping for a cheap combination of prepared foods! Japans markets are filled to the brim with all sorts of items you can throw together for lunch or dinner, but it's up to you to select a big expensive lunch box, or use your cunning to put together you own. This is a favorite hobby of ours!
After this, we went to Sky Lark Gusto! (pictured below)

They offer all sorts of foods, but along side that they have a "Premium Drink Bar"!


This can be ordered onto your food or standing alone. We ordered it by it's self and helped ourselves to all sorts of fruit juices, coffee's and Herbal Teas! What a treat. It's refreshing to go to a "Bar" with no alcohol! We spent a good 2 hours there (they allow long sitters) and after that went to PuriKura!

PuriKura is basically it's a huge photo-booth with a green screen. You select different kinds of digital backgrounds and take some awesome pictures. After that you use a touch screen/pen to decorate the pictures with images and text. It's always a blast and pretty funny too. These pictures do not do them justice, but here's a sneak peak.




Thanks for Celebrating with us!!

Joyfully,
-The Spearmans
