We celebrate ar home, too, but as the garden’s to small, we let the kids stay over and do the whole “wellness and relax together“ program we rarely have time for: hot bathtub, picnic on the floor, feeding pizza, dancing at 2 a.m….
We gift outselves with trips and events as presents (bday and others), as the shared experience gain in quality and we definitely discover new sides of each other or re-discover them. Next to art an authors’ reading often turned out to be as entertaining as inspiring (the book, the author, the event)!
Stay as strong and blessed and loved!

Doing things make the best memories. I surprised him with a picnic in a National Forest. We heard a coyote just across the creek and ran to my car with the food. In our quick entrance, we spilled the potato salad all over the back floor area in the car. Took weeks to get smell out. But was unforgettable 17 years later. Most memorable was 2004. Our final night together before he flew back to Iraq. We visited many monuments in Washington D.D. and ended with a romantic dinner. I watched him sleep that night through tears because I didn’t know when I would see my husband again. We had only been married for 9 months when he was deployed. We celebrate 18 years in May.

We seriously struggle to have alone time. We haven’t had a date night in over a year. Two teens and one of them having mental health issues fills what little free time there is but you are right. We have to make the time. 20 years together and we still don’t have the marriage thing figured out. Thanks for the suggestions Gen!

Wonder if the Joan of arc tote and tshirt I gave Jared at the con made it to you, he said you would be stoked 🙂

Then when I was in a relationship it was toxic so again I didn’t celebrate it. I got cards from my parents. I think they felt bad for me. I like ur of adventures instead of material items. If I ever celebrate this day that’s what I’ll do.

Thats really cool you went there! Another idea is plant a rose or tree. I bought my husband the Veterans Honor rose bush.

My husband and I have been married for almost 30 years, and we were just talking last night about how we want our older years together to be about the experiences we have together, not about “things.” It’s so special to do things together, to accomplish things as a couple, and to support each other in the process. Thanks for sharing your ideas and experiences with us. 🙂
