2nd Year Family Picture

 


Our second year of marriage has been fantastic! We have been so blessed and have had many memorable experiences. These photos are after 2.5 wonderful years of marriage.


Top 10 things we've learned in 3 years of marriage:
1) Communication. ALWAYS communicate with each other about everything. Say "I understand", Say "I'm sorry", Say "I forgive you", etc.
2) Rely on the each other and the Lord in hard times.
3) Travel the world together. (If you want to travel, you'll find the money)
4) 1 hour a day: spend 1 hr a day for time to yourself. whatever you like to do (read, nintendo, scrapbooking, blogging, exercise, meditation, etc.)
1 day a week: date night at least once a week. 1 week a year: at least one week for a family vacation.
5) Make goals together (financial, spiritual, small, big...)
6) Don't be hermits. Serve and share with others. Show the world you union and personalities. (Invite people to dinner, movie night, game night...)
7) Revelation comes to you and your spouse for your family, not from family or friends.
8) "Keep it happenin". Keep the love alive! Don't let it fade!
9) Don't put liquid dish soap in the dishwasher, your whole kitchen will flood meters high with bubbles. Don't put a glass casserole dish on the hot stove top - It will explode. Laugh when "disasters" come your way.
10) Be superheroes! Follow your FIRST impression ALWAYS. Open your door to everyone. Don't be afraid of who you are and what you believe. you'd be surprised at how many great people you can meet and touch.

Hey lis,
I like the first one you posted best. You should print it and frame it like Mom does. Really it is a good idea!
