You guys must be doing awesome if you hand him a loaded 9mm!

We had such an awesome time shooting and he's already making plans for this to become a habit. Kind of our new thing together. He's already been surfing the internet looking for a 22 that will fit the bullets I wasted money on.

BTW Paulie and I were also talking about renewing our vows last night

Ya know, it's something that's been on my heart and I know I have zero right to even think about it for a loooong time. Mr. Aubrie brought up again last night. He said exactly what I've been thinking and too afraid to share because it's too soon. He said he feels like I finally really understand what marriage is all about. That I really grasp the concept now. So many people go into a marriage without thinking what it really means. It's more than all the fluff and warm fuzzy feelings. It's a literal forsaking all others, cleaving unto one another, sharing every facet of your lives with one another, becoming a seperate family unit of your own, going into the relationship with the mindset, "What can I give of myself to this person that I love so dearly?" I never got it that way. I never got past the surfacey fluffy love stuff. I went into the relationship wondering what I would get out of it.

Since Dday, I've read oodles of material, and ironically our pastor has preached and spoke several series of marital material and boy...talk about an eye opener. I feel like I've been a fraud for the past 9 1/2 years. Almost that it's been a waste of time because I didn't really get it. Now I see what I should have seen before. I feel like we should get married all over again. Now I "get it". I want to say my vows, and really mean them. To start this marriage over right, fresh, and new.

Mr. Aubrie was spilling all this out to me last night (short of the vow renewal part) and I'm just nodding my head in agreement because that's what I've been feeling for the past couple weeks.

We're on the same page for like the first time ever and it's an incredible feeling.

Sounds like a wonderful night! I'm so happy for you!

Aubrie

T/J. I mean it, a real T/J. I'm thinking about how I can apply this to my M.

Not with rifles, though. We're urbanites....

Way to go girl!!

newbeg2011,

So glad to hear your trip was nice. It's humbling when you step back and look at the strength of our BSs. For them to even consider giving us another chance is breathtaking.

We're urbanites

I'm a city girl all the way. I married a country boy and he's been trying to convert me for years.
