That is what makes a blog engaging. Sometimes people just post that life is dandy and perfect, and sometimes it really is, but not always! I like that you post a good mix of great, and not-so-great, and we get to have an idea of what your life might ACTUALLY be like, so thanks for that! My hubby and I don't have kiddos yet (hence my blog), but I really hope when our time comes that we can stay as close as we are now, and make one another a priority, like you and Mark are now. Great post! :) <br />-Sara at www.saraleeblog.comSara Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03048728125734727190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202509439298990127.post-63235347154449621342016-03-10T09:32:43.242-05:002016-03-10T09:32:43.242-05:00Great post Kimm!

Tony and I always took family vacations with the girls (you know we are 2nd marriages) and we always found time for date golf days, dinners out, weekends away. Now that both of our girls are grown and out of the house.......I am SO GLAD we invested in each other when they were still at home! You have a ways to go yet, Olivia is still little, but it will go by fast! Tony and I love love love being Empty Nesters. I cried when both girls left and then I wiped my tears and started planning weekend trips, we bought a beach house and we love life! We never had to worry about what next? Because we knew exactly what was next: US! Golden years! Amazing times with each other. Great post!

It's only reachable by boat or sea plane and is a spectacular getaway. I like in the Dallas area and my husband and I go 2-4 times a year. You should definitely book it as a surprise to your hubby. Check out their website. As a heads up, it's couples only, so no kiddos :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202509439298990127.post-81127553254079548792016-03-08T15:00:39.877-05:002016-03-08T15:00:39.877-05:00Great post Kimm!

Just getting the little kids settled and into their rooms for the night, and sometimes it's a glass of wine, cheese & crackers on the couch and catching up on the DVR. It's all about just making it a priority to find the time to keep the marriage strong! Thanks for stopping by today!!! And I have to say I am BLOWN away as to how much babysitters get paid. I mean who can afford that...I know adults who don't make as much hourly as some high school girls that babysit. It's insane !!!

I do want to add too that it doesn't have to be date nights and trips away to make your spouse a priority. Those can be very costly and many people can't afford a babysitter plus the cost of the activity. I think it's more of the mindset you have - when you have it in your head that you will make your spouse a priority, then you find ways in everyday life to let that show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202509439298990127.post-80025778853389371752016-03-08T13:05:29.521-05:002016-03-08T13:05:29.521-05:00How long will Brooke live with you?How long will Brooke live with you?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202509439298990127.post-77151028288827274572016-03-08T12:52:16.006-05:002016-03-08T12:52:16.006-05:00Love this, I have 6 kids and 2 grandkids and I nee...Love this, I have 6 kids and 2 grandkids and I needed the reminder cause its 100 percent true .mom26kidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13663949052847950593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202509439298990127.post-47331163051713587432016-03-08T12:40:38.279-05:002016-03-08T12:40:38.279-05:00Hey Laura!
