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 2489 – How We Spent Teacher Appreciation Day

Bret loves being a teacher. So days like yesterday are just a super big cherry on top.

First, Bret got the most adorable cookie (the mascot of the school is a hedgehog).

Then we realized that there were two places offering teacher deals within very close proximity to each other and not too far from us.

Funny story – we started at World of Beer where they were offering a free cider or Sam Adams….but Bret ended up like a kid in a candy story with the VAST amount of beers that he got a tasting flight and tried another beer. Didn’t even ask about the freebies. I lucked out and got amazing shrimp tacos for Taco Tuesday. Nom nom nom.

Next we went to the Green Turtle, who were offering a free meal (up to $12) for teachers. So what did Bret do? He got a TRIPLE cheeseburger!

Thank you to the businesses that offered deals and freebies to teachers!
