Hello there, loves. I took a social media hiatus this weekend due to a little medical procedure (don't worry, I'm fine) and going to my parents house for the 4th and an early birthday celebration for mi madre since she'll be in California on her real birthday.
But I'm back today to bring you a fantastic linkup with the duo behind Life with Amberly & Joe as well as some other fantastic bloggers! This is my first linkup ever to cohost and I am so excited about it.
Our car ride conversation last night was what do we want to accomplish in our second six months of marriage, since our half-iversary was Friday. Drew's first response? "Well, stay married, for one."
After the laughter stopped we got serious, and here's what we are working towards as we move forward:
- Financial goals:
- By our 1 year anniversary: have a great anniversary vacation booked and paid for.
- Have doubled our savings account.
- Created and stuck to an organized, working budget.
- Eat at home more and out less.
- Romance goals:
- One date night per month planned ahead--maybe even one where I get to get all dressed up.
- Be more intentional in intimacy.
- Eat at the dinner table most nights instead of in front of the TV.
- And...don't split up.
This really opened up a great conversation for us and allowed us to really talk about things that were bothering us without having an argument or any strife between us. We enjoyed the discussion a lot and learned even more about each other and what matters to each of us.
Now, it's your turn. What are some goals you and your spouse/fiance/boyfriend/girlfriend have as you move forward?
New to the Marriage & Relationship Goals Link-up? Goals help our relationships grow stronger and get better with time as well as help us move forward and avoid the "ruts" of life. This link-up was created in hopes of inspiring your relationship with your significant other no matter your chapter in life and love. We would love for you to join us in making the things we do in our relationships intentional.
