Simplicity in Marriage, Christianity, Travel, Business, Life

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 1937 – What Do You Read By Candlelight?

Posted on October 30, 2014 by 365 days of marriage

A few weeks back, you may have caught my post about new boundaries in our lives. We’ve been doing pretty well with the sleep one…sometimes using our devices a little late (our troops need our help!!!) or staying up chatting with family….but for the most part, we’ve been sticking to it. I still can’t get over how much better I feel just getting up and going to sleep at roughly the same time every day. Even when I’m getting a little bit of sleep, I feel great.

Last night, we lit the candles, and picked up the books we’re each reading. I’m rereading The Walking Dead comics! I gotta admit, it was fun to read them by candlelight!

Day 1935 – The Next Step For Writing My Book

Posted on October 28, 2014 by 365 days of marriage

I’ve been researching and reading for a while about how to write a book and things to consider. My most recent task is to read through and do the exercises in Bulletproof Book Proposals. Up until today, I had each chapter listed on my to-do list…and honestly, it wasn’t getting done.

Yesterday, I splurged a little and bought some Post-It Notes (name brand, thank you very much!) Here’s what I came up with! Hopefully crumbling up Post-Its will help move things along!!

Day 1934 – She Followed Him To School One Day…

Posted on October 27, 2014 by 365 days of marriage

Today I hitched a ride with my hubby to school so I could meet with another photographer near his school. It was so nice holding his hand while he drove. I think those are some of the sweetest moments, the quiet, in the middle moments.
