I love my life! Last night my husband and I had one the greatest evenings. We had no plans, we made no plans, just living life together. I couldn't ask for anything more. We've started working out together, which I can say is one of the greatest things we ever started. He is pretty much subject matter expert when it comes to training and I love to learn whatever he wants to teach me. It has brought me an entirely new level of respect for him and what he does. It's not just playing football or training. There are so many little details to think about. Where you position your feet, how far you bend your knees, what your eyes are looking at changes your entire position, and finally making it all come together to explode into action. Amazing! After our workout we headed to the pool to cool off and do a few laps...but we both forgot our towels. We're pretty much a match made in heaven! :)
We headed to Wal-Mart and Kwik Trip to pick up a few things. Of course errands always take twice as long as you plan for. Yet it is such a good opportunity to for us to just stroll along together and talk. I swear I could talk to that man for hours!! I thank God every day for his patient ways to listen attentively as if every word I say is important....which we all know it isn't. Still he has a way of making me feel like I am the only thing going on. I think of how often I fail to do that in conversation. Trying mult-task and keep busy while "listening". Let's be honest, that's not real listening. He is such an example to me. He is one of those rare people that you can't help but want to be better after being around him. I guess that's the face of Christ shining through. I am the luckiest woman alive to have such a gift as my husband to share life with.
Once we finally made it back around to our little apartment of our own we decided to drag the matress out into the living room and watch a movie on the big screen. I felt like a little kid. It was just so fun to do something out the ordinary because we wanted to. I guess it's things like that that keep life fresh and fun. I hope we never lose that in our marriage or future family.

I am blessed! :)
