Let's Celebrate Marriage!

We're not just in the wedding business, we're in the marriage business. The wedding is the official first day of the marriage but the mindset of being committed to your husband starts when you realize he's the one.

My husband and I met when we were 18, freshmen in college. We started dating our junior year, 2 years later we were engaged, then a year after that we were married. Actually, today is the 17th anniversary of the day he proposed. This April will be our 16th wedding anniversary. If you bothered to do the math, that makes me 40, I don't feel 40, but every time I open my wallet and see my ID, there it is.

In our 15 years, 324 days of marriage, we've really enjoyed being married to each other. Through the years we've matured as individuals and as a couple. It's funny how the habits that annoyed us about each other, we've now adopted. It's the whole "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" mentality. We balance each other out, sometimes I'm "Lucy" and he's "Ricky" and other times we're like the couple from "Everybody loves Raymond". We strongly believe that the glue that holds us together is our love for God, each other, our kids, and our families.

One of my past clients had this shirt and I had to get one for myself. I found this great online store that sells apparel that promotes marriage and I love their story. Union28. I not only got a shirt for myself, I got one for my husband too.

Since the writing on his shirt is bigger, I think it means that he means it more.

  1. Wow! Almost 16 years of marriage for the Muns! Truly a blessed union...

    So, if you're 40, am I 37 or 43? =)
