20 Things I think we have learned in 20 Years of Marriag

So the great thing about today is that we get to celebrate Jesus together. Don't get me wrong, both of us realize that 20 years of marriage, especially in today's society is an amazing accomplishment and we plan to celebrate it together. 

But we have not done it alone. If not for the love and grace of Jesus we certainly would not be where we are today.

So as we reflect together on 20 plus years together, we want to give all of the glory and praise back to the One that we love. Thank you Jesus!!

That said, here are 20 things I think we have learned in 20 years together.

1. Marry your best friend.
2. Do everything together.
3. Share your dreams and live them out.
4. Talk about everything.
5. Set up safe boundaries concerning the opposite sex.
6. Agree on everything you spend money on.
7. Go to bed together every night.
8. Say “I love you” a lot.
9. Pray about everything!
10. Never leave an argument unresolved.
11. Do things often without the kids, it’s alright!
12. Keep it spicy!
13. Celebrate everything together, even the small stuff.
14. Never stop holding hands or sitting together.
15. Do nice things for each other without being asked or told.
16. Be a good listener, especially when you think you need to talk.
17. Laugh a lot!
18. Don’t’ expect to change them, and never stop working on yourself.
19. Give your spouse the wings they need to soar.
20. Keep Christ absolutely central, He is faithful!

I love you Stace!!
