This past weekend was great. It was one of those "That was fun!" weekends. What did we do, you ask? Well, we didn't do anything, by conventional standards. To be honest, we had huge plans for the weekend, but had to scrap them come Thursday night. So really, productivity-wise and entertainment-wise, we didn't do anything spectacular.
We enjoyed some good home-cooked meals, practiced Spanish, went grocery shopping, worked on my scrapbook, developed software, did homework. The best part, we just basked in marriage. Yup, sounds lame. I know. You see, we are just wrapping up a 8-week marriage course. Don't be concerned! The first thing people do when they hear "marriage class" is think; "Oh no, they have marriage problems!! It's only been 7.2 months, and it's gone sour already!" Relax! It is not like that at all. Tom and I are just so set on getting this marriage thing as close to the best-it-could-possibly-be as we can. So we decided to join 5 other couples seeking the same thing and attend a marriage course. We really want to start our marriage off right, and we learned sooo much during our marriage prep course that we thought a marriage class would be just as eye-opening, tough, healthy, and rewarding. And we were right. And it has been fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.
So, yeah. We had a wonderful weekend. That's all. We didn't do anything super fantastic, but just basked in this glorious thing called marriage. This wasn't 'the plan' for the weekend, it's just how things are happening now. On a daily basis. Oh sure, it still takes work, but we are just so much more equipped. We are so much more aware. We are so thankful to God that He brought us together.
What a wonderful weekend.
