Hubby and I are. enjoying our first long weekend anniversary getaway since before ANY children were born. Before this trip, the longest we've been away from the kids for a vacation has been 2 nights.
This weekend, we are away for FOUR nights!
It is so nice to celebrate our anniversary in a way that lets us slow down and connect with less demands and distractions.
Doing so has given me the chance to put down some thoughts regarding 11 years of marriage to my wonderful Hubby.
Eleven Years of Marriage
Marriage isn’t about romance every day. It’s about trusting each other every day.
Marriage isn’t about always agreeing. It’s about working together through everything.
Marriage isn’t about always having the same dreams and goals. It’s about always supporting one another’s dreams and goals.
Marriage isn’t about being made happy everyday by your spouse. It’s about choosing joy everyday with your spouse.
Marriage isn’t about a happy ending. It’s about beginning your love story again every day.
Marriage isn’t about finding the one perfect. person who completes you. It’s about choosing one another every single day.
Marriage isn’t about honeymoon vacation getaways. It’s about finding ways to create intimacy every day.
Marriage isn't a series of choices all carefully considered and decided together. It is the choices he's made, and the choices I've made, and the choices life and God has made for us and living it all as a team.
A wedding is one day of your life. An anniversary is one day of your year. Marriage is every day…
For better, or worse.
For richer, or poorer.
In sickness and health.
To love, honor, and cherish,
For as long as you both shall love.
