"The View" host and "Fuller House" star Candace Cameron Bure just celebrated her 20th wedding anniversary to former ice hockey player Valeri Bure, and she is thanking God for helping their marriage survive through all of life's storms.

On her Facebook page, Bure shared some throwback photos of her wedding day and shared with her fans the reason why their marriage managed to survive several upheavals.

"Let's be real for a second. We are celebrating 20 years of marriage today. 22 years together as a couple. I couldn't be more proud to be here and love my man the way I do. But let me assure you it hasn't been all roses the whole journey," she writes.

"There have been several tough years, in a row, ups and downs, bad attitudes and bad decisions, but we've persevered. We rode them out. We loved each other through them. We kept the focus: God's glory," Bure adds. "We are both better for it. I'm so grateful and thankful for the man I married. Neither of us are perfect, far from it, and will continue to make mistakes because we are human. But God's Word and His grace see us through - striving to be the best of ourselves in Him. To God be the glory. Thank you for an awesome 20 years together. I pray for another 60. Amen."

Bure, best known for her role as the beautiful D.J. Tanner in "Full House" and its spinoff "Fuller House," tied the knot in 1996. Two years later, she and her husband welcomed daughter Natasha. After another two years, they had a son named Lev and youngest son Maksim came after another two years.
