Wedded bliss
8 years ago today I stood at an altar and exchanged vows with the woman of my dreams. Today we get to celebrate 8 years of marriage together. When we stood at the altar and said “I do” at Beulah Baptist Church in Dothan, AL I am positive that Tracy had no idea what she was getting into. All I knew was that I was the most blessed guy in the world. As today is a celebration day, I spent a bit of time reflecting on the past 8 years and I have come to the conclusion that I would be a wreck if it was not for my godly wife. She has been my encourager and helpmate on occasions when I deserved neither. She has been my critic and has provided accountability when I did not want, but certainly needed, both. She continues to amaze me with her love for the Lord, her passion for being a Mommy and her incredible love for me. I was the most blessed guy in the world 8 years ago today and I am even more blessed today than I was then.
Tracy, I love you and I am so thankful for 8 years with you and I cannot wait for another 50 or 60 more.
Howdy! My name is Micah Fries and I am a husband, daddy and pastor who loves to discuss life, theology, culture and variety of other issues.

Congratulations my friend! I remember meeting you my first semester and you telling me you were going to marry her. Then sitting there that day watching it all, man it was so cool to see it happen. I love you guys.
Congrats!
Congrats from down south (way down south!) What a beautiful tribute to your wife. I can’t think of a better blessing here on earth than a Godly wife like you describe. They are indeed more valuable than all the riches of this earth.
Micah, What a great day it was and how greatly has God blessed you these past 8 years. You are correct to say you have a beautiful and wonderful wife. She is a also a great daughter-in-law. Thank both of you for being a Godly example of husband, wife, mother, father, homemaker, provider. One final note, thank you both for our two, oh so sweet, granddaughters!
Love you,
Dad
May the Lord continue to bless your marriage! He is the giver of every good and perfect gift. We hope it just keeps getting better and better. Happy Anniversary
Congrats…

Congratulations and God’s richest continued blessings to you and Tracy.
