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 1570 – If You Always Have A Goal, You’ll Never Be Bored

Bret had a teacher in college who was an all around awesome guy. One thing he said was if you always have a goal, you’ll never be bored. Bret ran in his honor yesterday.

It got me thinking of some goals for myself. I came up with one. I won’t share it yet….lol, I’ve shared a few goals on the blog before that I did NOT meet. Plus, this is a personal goal. I have a plan to meet that goal and I do think it’s possible. It won’t be easy, but I’m going to try. Bret, thank you for inspiring me to set a goal. 🙂

What is your goal?

Day 1569 – Bret Broke A World Record Today (Unofficially)

The record Bret was trying to beat was the Guinness World Record for the fastest fireman’s carry. This means he has to carry someone over his shoulders, without putting them down, for a mile. The current record is 11:29. Today, Bret destroyed that record and ran it in 10:28. We have to send all of the evidence (video, photos, witness statements) to Guinness before it’s official.

I am so proud.
