- Today and All Days -

Wednesday night, we graduated [summa cum laude, of course] from four weeks of marriage preparation class! 



4 nights x 2.5 hours each time was totally the way to go. I couldn't imagine sitting in this thing for 8 hours straight and trying to soak it all in in one day... Wowza. 

Our instructors were the cutest people; they have been teaching marriage prep for 20 years and have been married for even longer! We thought it was so valuable to have both a male and female perspective, and we loved hearing all the personal stories they had to share. [PS - Who knew that couples actually fought about what color of Christmas lights to have or how to replace the toilet paper or how to fold socks...?! For real?]  

The main theme that we took away: it's all about communication, communication, and more communication! Speaking on behalf of both of us (really truly honestly, I promise Brian would say the same thing), everything about this class was so fruitful and brought up lots of topics and questions that we had never discussed before.Thumbs up for the St. Louis Archdiocese and their efforts to effectively inspire and impact engaged couples. 

Cheers to today and ALL the days of our lives!
