About 365 days of marriage

I started this blog in April of 2011. At the time, Bret and I were wedding photographers and it was a way to share how marriage is more about the day to day and so much more than the wedding day itself. For about 5 years, I blogged about the joys and sorrows of the Christian walk, marriage, work, family and friends. I’ve blogged every day since a few weeks after I started. In May of 2015, we photographed our last wedding. Now, I have become passionate about simplicity, particularly in marriage, Christianity, business, travel and life. For a number of reasons, we have become minimalists. I’ve found that having simplicity makes life so much deeper, refreshing and joyful. I hope that this blog will help others see the benefits of living simply.

Day 2692 – Week Of Marriage Thankfulness

Today I’m thankful for a husband who pushes me to do things I don’t feel like doing at the time.

We had just walked 3 miles in the heat to the Delicate Arch and were doing a little drive through other parts of the park. We saw the Double Arch and Bret wanted to walk up. It was only a 1/4 mile. Seriously, not that big of a deal. But I was soooooo drained from the hike that I just didn’t want to go. He encouraged me to go, so I did. I ended up sitting in the shade of the arches while he explored. On the way back to the car, we took the photo below. It is my current favorite picture of us, not only because we’re acting ridiculous (like we normally do) but it is a reminder that Bret knows me really well and knows when it’s good to push me to do more.
