Sounds kind of silly, huh? In all actuality it is extremely important to do though in order to maintain the romance and excitability between the two partners. My number one goal with my husband is to never allow the relationship to become stagnant. I realize that this may be difficult and require work, but isn't that what marriage is? I fear people give up too easily on marriage these days. Some people get married under false pretensions that they are going to live in a fairytale now that they are hitched; unfortunately that is not reality. There will be days when your spouse will drive you nuts (I am almost positive Nate has already found himself to this point being married to me:) the important thing is to always look past your partner's shortcomings by seeing their good qualities and how they triumph. I am fortunate enough to have a group of close friends that have had extremely successful marriages for 15+ years! How incredible is that?! I am constantly listening to their wise words on how to accomplish such an achievement. Without a doubt I know my soul mate is Nate Jorgensen and plan to someday celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary!!
One way that I will create excitement for our relationship is by always keeping Nate on his toes. Anyone who knows me well enough knows that I am not one to sit for a long period of time. I HAVE to always be doing something. Nate and my cousin always even tease me that I am unable to watch an entire movie because I will end up doing laundry, mopping the floor, etc. Ha ha oh well I am who I am!
My cousin Mikey's school is having their annual Valentine's Dance and since his ex girlfriend (tramatic for the lil guy, he is 17 go figure) asked another dude I decided to hook my cous up with one of my good friend's daughter. Given that my cousin is kind of shy he asked Nate and I to join him.... Yee-haw back to high school we a go! Well, I figured since we are going we might as well make it official and therefore I needed to ask him to this girl's choice dance :D Yesterday, after Realtor Tour I had to run some errands and while I was out an about I ran across an "It's A Girl!" balloon. Too funny... I hung it up with some signs outside our house for Nate to come home to. As I was in the kitchen cooking dinner Nate came running into the house and exclaimed, "BABE, ARE WE PREGNANT?" I felt SO bad at that point, but had no idea homeboy would even think that because we are NOT trying for kids right now, but nonetheless I had to inform him this was so NOT the case. I then led him to the coffee table where he found a sign saying, "....asking you to the Valentine's Dance."
I am also making matching shirts to surprise Nate for the dance... I will post pics when I am done.
Have a great day! I am off to Red Lobster to celebrate my Mom's 29th Birthday with friends!
