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 2000 – What A Ride

Today marks a new year and 2000 days of marriage. What a ride it has been so far.

I’m so thankful for all we’ve walked through and all that we’ve learned. Some things have been super hard but we’ve grown closer together and closer to God. It’s amazing to see the “one flesh” materialize in our marriage. To know what the other is thinking and would want without them having to be there.

Here’s to a few more thousand days my friend. πŸ™‚

Day 1997 – That Time Bret Tried To Break A Guinness World Record Again

Last year, Bret attempted to break a Guinness World Record. For reasons I’ll let Bret explain when he can write a guest post about all this, he did not break the record last year.

He’s gone back and forth if he’d try again, but the idea to carry his dad came up and he almost couldn’t say no. Today, he tried it again AND broke the current record AND his last attempt.

He finished with a time of 10:21. We have to send in all the documentation for the official “you broke the record.”

Here are a few pictures from the back of my camera.

Maybe I’ll try some day? Ha, no way, I can’t do a 10 minute mile without someone on my back. πŸ™‚
