Ben and I just started a new class. It's called 10 great dates. Visit the web site here http://www.marriagealive.com/index.cfm. The idea is that when a couple is dating the marriage is stronger and will have less chance of divorce.
Last night was our first of the ten dates and it was soooooo fun! We met at our church for 30 min. prior to the date to get our date ideas and conversation ideas (talking about the first time you noticed one another, first date, wedding day.) then you leave and go on your date. We went to Linnens n Things to shop for an apron for me (isn't Ben great!) but didn't purchase any (I'm gonna make mine) but DID buy some new pillows for both of us (after walking out of the store we realised it had been 16+ years since either of us had used a new sleep pillow......gross!) Then we went to Applebee's, shared appetizers and talked. I love Ben so much!
I would recommend getting the 10 Great Dates book and doing this for your marriage even without the formal 'class'.
I will be posting later today about the treasure hunt my Mom made for the kids last week. (He, he, he. Gotcha! I won't be posting these photos until Tuesday.)

Hi, Sorry, I need to get those pix to you so you can post them. How bout I come over in the later morning. I noticed you called this morning, but didn't leave a message. Love you and I like the 10 great date ideas, even for us old foggies! : )
Doesn't remembering back to when you were first together bring up all those great feelings? It seems to do that for me! Have sweet dreams on your new pillows.
