Personalized Wedding Rings: Trendy or Tacky?

Christine over at Our One Heart was talking about Personalized Wedding Rings. No, no… not something etching inside the band, like initials or your wedding date. This is something on the outside of the band. A message that the world is meant to see.
Is it just me or have wedding rings (and engagement rings for […]

Night Owl, Early Bird

So, we’re not all about the answers, tips and that here. We also have questions!!! We’ve mentioned a few times that we are so very opposite in so many ways. One of those ways is our natural preferences for scheduling a day. Though we have restrictions (me with the kids, […]

In What Area Do You Want Encouragement from Your Spouse?

Time for another question, y’all. Whether or not you answer here in the comments - which is always welcome - is less important than whether or not you answer the question in your relationship.
We’ve been on an encouraging kick of late, so I’m going to keep running with this theme and ask: In what area […]

Music To Get Hitched By

This spring Kerri and I had the privileged of attending a long-time friend’s wedding. As a wedding favor, they handed out a compilation CD full of songs from bands they’d seen while dating.

Because I am a true renaissance man, sensitive and unafraid to work on his marital relationship, I’m in the process of reading and digging up a few books on the topic for review and discussion here. While I hope to begin our conversation on the first book in the next week or so, I’d love […]

How Do You Celebrate Your Spouse’s Birthday?

I’m still in a birthday frame of mind, so I’m gonna ask a quick question before I head over and order myself some TiVo!
How do you celebrate your spouse’s birthday?
Do they like you to make a big deal out of it? Surprise party with a bazzilion guests? Embarrassing songs by untrained waitstaff at Appleby’s TGI […]

Holiday Negotiations

Happy Memorial Day Weekend, to all of you in the United States! According to estimates by the American Automobile Association, more than 80% of the 38 million Americans traveling out of town this weekend will do so by car. That’s up from last year despite record gas prices.

Happy Mother’s Day! Love, Your Husband

Yesterday was Mother’s Day here in the ex-Colonies, and it’s got me in the frame of mind to ask a question of all you husbands and fathers of little ones:
What, if anything, do you do on Mother’s Day on behalf of your little children?
It’s an interesting time, those first few years of motherhood. Motherhood is […]

What Do You Do That Ticks Your Spouse Off?

See what I did there? It’s really easy to answer the more common question, What bothers you about your spouse? But rarely does that get anyone anywhere. Best case… She never hears you. More likely, this good natured teasing or “honesty” winds up hurting someone’s neck… couches are uncomfortable.
So, let’s see if we can get […]
