A Month From Now

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Next month, July 7-14, my beautiful bride and I will be going here to celebrate our 16th year anniversary. When I went through the second year of Men’s Fraternity, led by Robert Lewis, he encouraged us to have a weekly escape, a monthly experience and a yearly extravaganza. So, this year our yearly extravaganza will take us to Costa Rica. Last year, our yearly extravaganza was here, and we had an absolutely wonderful time. Here are some pics from our time in Aruba.

As a married couple, we deal with all kinds of stresses, but these kinds of intentional of times and experiences help our marriage to breathe and be rejuvenated from week to week, month to month and year to year. We are still learning.

How do you and your spouse keep your marriage alive and breathing the wonderful oxygen of unity and intimacy? Do you have a weekly escape, monthly experience or a yearly extravaganza with your spouse? What do those times look like?

aruba 022 300x244 Aruba

On July 4, at 6:10 in the morning, if the Lord says the same, Tonia and I will be heading to Aruba for seven days. We will chillax in a beautiful and spacious room in the Occidental Grand Aruba, overlooking the water. We are looking forward to: being alone, away from the kids, enjoying the white, sandy beaches, eating a lot of good food, dancing the night away, and celebrating our 15th year of marriage on July 10. I am planning on this being, as much as possible, a perfect vacation. I have permission from my honey brown to blog from Aruba. At the suggestion of a twitter friend, Tracy Davis (@anointd2srv), we will be giving his and hers written and video updates and perspectives of the trip.

Tell me about your perfect vacation. Where would it be, what would you do, and with whom would you enjoy it?
