We’ve been married 21 years and 18 of them happy. Ha! I’ve been wanting to say that ever since a man once told me that about himself and his wife. I thought it was great. In 21 years we’ve lived in 7 houses, had five children, enjoyed some wonderful times, and grew through hard times…. [continue reading]
The Unsubmissive Wife
It all started when we were in the process of buying our house when we were living in the Dallas area. The previous owner had long since moved out, but the tenant had left a house full of unwanted furniture and personal items. There was a plastic playscape in the front yard to one side… [continue reading]
Bloopers from Our Wedding Day
We’re celebrating 20 years married today! What better way that to remember what all went wrong on our wedding day? Ha ha. They say something goes wrong at every wedding… My wedding day began like most any bride’s. I was excited and nervous and worried and happy. I arrived at the church early so that… [continue reading]
Grace in Marriage
Grace (and a little humor too) is so important in marriage. This summer we will celebrate 19 years of marriage. It has been so fun to see us change, grow, and mature as a couple over the years. Yesterday we were driving home from church. In our marriage Jason is the driver and I am… [continue reading]
Marriage and Self Confidence
Marriage changes you for better or for worse or a little of both sometimes. After a bunch of years married, because I’m oh so old and wise. Ha! I woke up one day and realized something had happened to my one time confident self. Gone she was! Now, I’ve never been one to be confident… [continue reading]

We would be staying in Jerusalem three nights at the… [continue reading]
Keep the fun in marriage!
My engineer, I love him. I think we balance each other out. Sometimes he pulls harder his way–learning, studying, documentaries, museums. And sometimes I pull harder my way–fun, laughter, movies, theme parks. In the middle we’re a great balance. He was pulling pretty hard for some boring heady activity. That’s when I decided to lay… [continue reading]
Love Worth Fighting For
Either your marriage is going REALLY well or you should be VERY concerned when your husband asks you if you want to go to a marriage event. Ha ha! The truth is that my husband and I both have a lot of respect for Kirk Cameron from watching him on the show The Way of… [continue reading]
Dating again!
Do you remember that post I wrote several years ago, “I kissed dating goodbye?” The funny thing about that is that we have started to date again on a regular basis. Ha! It’s not that I was ever AGAINST dating your spouse. I always thought it was the best way. I just came to the… [continue reading]
18 Years and still laughing.
Sunday we celebrated 18 years of married bliss laughs. I am much too honest to say it’s been bliss. In fact, when I see people gushing all over about how their spouse is the best, awesomest, wonderfullest thing ever…I kinda think they’re lying. Ha ha. And, no joke, a few years later I often see… [continue reading]
