Stories from our Thursday

It's a miracle, Husband and I both had this whole day off and completely free! I slept in seeing as how I didn't get to sleep until 4:30 am. Afterwards we went out and donated an entire car full of stuff to the DAV, a thrift/donation store. I love donating and volunteering because it is so fulfilling, plus, Husband was glad to get rid of all the junk I had sitting in the living room. We had lunch at Subway and walked it off at the Mall. He's even cute when he eats, of course, that's the wife in me talking.
For about an hour and a half Husband went on a motorcycle ride with his dad and I made this!
Husband and I have so many things we'd like to accomplish and this is the start to our Bucket List. Every time we do one of these things, we'll pin the index card on the opposite side and write the date on it. My husband likes it, he doesn't really know what to think of all my projects but this is something for the both of us. I'm pretty proud of it and it leaves so much of our future up to us.
          
We had a little snack, okay, not so little but a little froyo never hurt anyone. His flavors of choice are Brownie Batter and Cheesecake yogurts, topped with brownie bites and gummy worms. Mine? Well, I usually like brownie and peanut butter but this time I got Strawberry and Cheesecake, topped with rasberries, strawberries, blueberries, and cheesecake bites. I've been waiting weeks to eat this, a craving I have often. My amazing Husband fed into it. We sat next to a group of older women talking bad about co-workers and that was interesting enough. Husband's words were, "Man, I'm glad I'm not a female." You said it, sir. 
What better way to spend a Thursday then stopping in to the pet store so Husband can play with his favorite animals, he is a kitten fanatic. I love that he turns into a big baby when it comes to these little kittens. 
 
This day couldn't have ended better. We took our malamute for a nice walk, it is way too nice outside not to. Although, he's a bit of a mangy mutt with his fur shedding and all these nasty patches he's got going on, but even then if I had a dollar for every time someone stopped to ask about him or say that we have a good looking dog, well, I'd be making about $6 a day. Husband has to be the one to hold on to this pup, he's just to big for me to hold onto.

This is what this handsome fella looks like while grocery shopping. I think it's important for a married couple to do their grocery shopping together, at least for the first few years of their marriage. Why? Because it's the perfect opportunity to talk and a lot can come up while out getting groceries. Also, setting a budget and making bets on the end price is a fun little game to play. It can also bring you closer, running errands together and doing the dirty work together. Lessons learned. 

Husband cooked me a nice Cajun pasta meal with Tilapia while I cleaned the house up. Our plan is to spend the night eating while watching the Red Box movies we rented. So far, so good. 


There is so much happiness we share in this marriage. We're a team and we share the good and the bad. Unfortunately, not everyday can be like this one, but if it was we wouldn't share the passion we share. Society has a very jaded view on young marriage and I don't blame them, most people give them reason to. Hopefully Husband and I can shine a new light on things. For now, we're just taking it day by day.

-A Wife.
