Let’s Talk About Love, Chin Hairs, and Macular Degeneration 🥴
(Because marriage is nothing if not real life.)

So here's the deal... I’ve been navigating macular degeneration — and while that sounds heavy, the real kicker?

👨‍🔧 Kirby now has the unofficial job of Chief Chin Hair Inspector.
Because apparently, I can’t see them like I used to.
(And let’s be honest — some of them could qualify as tree limbs at this point.)

But y’all — THIS is marriage.
Not just flowers and foot rubs, but tweezers, bright lights, and a man saying,
“Babe, hold still. I think I got it.”

Here’s why I’m sharing:
Health changes.
Vision shifts.
Things sag. Things grow. 😂
And it all becomes part of the story we’re writing together.

It’s not always glamorous, but it can be funny.
And full of grace.
And connection.
Even when one of you is squinting and the other’s holding tweezers like a surgical tool.

So if you're walking through health challenges or aging or just… real life…
You’re not alone.
And yes — laughter really is the best medicine.

🫶 We choose each other, in every season.
Even the plucky ones.

Still thinking about it? Consider this your official nudge.

✨ This Saturday, we're hosting a marriage workshop that we know could shift the way you and your spouse connect.

It’s called Us:Upgraded because that’s what it’s about—taking what you already have and making it even better.

Not through guilt.
Not through therapy.
Not through airing all your dirty laundry in a room of strangers.
(You can breathe now.)

But with real conversation, practical tools, a lot of laughter, and a reminder that you actually like each other (remember that?!).

This isn’t just for “struggling couples”—this is for real couples in real life who want more connection, more joy, and a little help hitting reset.

💡 You’ll leave with:

A new way to understand each other

Fresh tools to navigate your everyday communication

A shared vision for what comes next

And honestly? A sense of lightness you might not even realize you’ve been missing

🗓 This Saturday
📍 Royal Center, IN
⏰ 9AM–3PM
👫 Snacks + Lunch included
🎟 Still room for you!

👉 Register here: www.EverAfter.coach

Because “someday” always turns into never unless you put it on the calendar.
We’d love to see you there!

Just because you're in the same room… doesn’t mean you’re on the same page.
And just because you take a trip together… doesn’t mean you’re automatically connected.

Truth?
It’s the little, everyday moments that build closeness.
Not the plane tickets.
Not the fancy dinners.
Not even the gorgeous scenery.

It's the choosing each other again and again in the middle of errands, messes, and full schedules.

Today, let this be your reminder:
📍 Pause.
📍 Look each other in the eye.
📍 Ask: “What do you need today?” or “When can we sneak away for a few minutes, just us?”

Marriage is made in moments.
And no matter where you are—in your kitchen or in Croatia—those small moments of intentional love make all the difference.

(Pic from our trip… just because ❤️)

We just got back from a 2-week vacation… and whew.
It was beautiful. Life-giving. Full of laughter, new places, and a few “what in the world are we doing?” moments.
(Travel has a way of bringing out the best and the stretch zones in marriage, right?)

Now we’re home—and shifting back into routine.
And one of the things we’re prioritizing together right now?
Our health.

Not just physical health—though that’s a big part.
But mental, emotional, relational health too.

Because when one of us feels off or overwhelmed, it shows up in our marriage.
And when we both feel strong, connected, and supported—everything flows better.

So we’re choosing to grow together in this season.
Sometimes that looks like encouraging each other to go for a walk or lift the heavy thing.
Sometimes it’s making better food choices, managing stress, or just going to bed on time.

It’s not about perfection.
It’s about connection.
And taking care of your health is taking care of your marriage.

This pic is from our trip—just a small reminder of how good it feels to be present, together, and rooted in something real.

🛑 Pause for just a second… when was the last time you prayed for your spouse, not just about them?

Marriage is a team sport, but it’s easy to forget the power of prayer in the day-to-day. Praying for your spouse isn’t about trying to “fix” them—it’s about covering them in love, asking God to strengthen, protect, and encourage them in ways only He can.

It can be as simple as:
👉 “Lord, give them peace today.”
👉 “Protect their heart and mind.”
👉 “Remind them how deeply loved they are.”

Praying daily shifts your perspective from frustration to gratitude, from distance to closeness. ❤️

What’s one prayer you could start whispering for your spouse today?

We’ll get real about what happens behind closed doors, give you tools to handle conflict without casualties, and show you simple ways to connect deeper without the striving.

We’d love to have you there with us. 🎉

🌙✨ 32 years.

Tonight we’re celebrating our anniversary under the moonlight on the Adriatic Sea here in Cres… and it couldn’t be more perfect.

No fancy dinner. No reservations. Just cheese, meat, and fresh bread from the little local store — eaten together with the best view we could ask for. 🧀🥖🍷🌊

32 years of love, lessons, laughter, forgiveness, adventures, tears, joy, growth, and grace.
32 years of choosing each other — not perfectly, but faithfully.
32 years of God writing a story bigger and better than anything we could have planned.

If you told those two kids who said “I do” that one day we’d celebrate on an island in Croatia, they would have laughed. Yet here we are. 💛

Grateful for every chapter. Excited for all the ones still to come.
Here’s to the next adventure, Kirby. I’d choose you every time. 🥂

It took some serious effort to make this happen.

But Tuesday—we did it.
Once a year, we try to sneak away and kayak.
This year? It almost didn’t happen.
Busy schedules, construction zones, last-minute changes… all the things.

But we loaded up the kayaks anyway.
We showed up.
And it was so worth it.

Here’s the truth: getting away isn’t always easy.
You have to fight for it.
You have to choose it.
And that’s what marriage is—choosing each other in the middle of the mess.

If it’s been a while since you carved out intentional time together… this is your nudge.
Even half a day can shift the atmosphere.

When was the last time you really kissed your spouse?!

We’ve been married 31 years, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s this: great marriages don’t just happen. They’re built—one intentional choice at a time. 💙

Life gets busy. Jobs, kids, grandkids, laundry, dinner, the never-ending to-do list… and before you know it, days go by without real connection with the person you promised to love most.

Here’s one of the simplest ways to change that: The 7-Day Affection Challenge.

For the next week, commit to ONE intentional moment of physical affection every single day. No excuses.
💑 A full, 20-second hug (yes, it will feel long at first)
💋 A real kiss—not the quick “peck and go”
🤝 Holding hands while talking or walking
🛋 Sitting close and resting your head on their shoulder

The key is to make it intentional. Don’t wait for it to “just happen.” Put it in your phone, stick a note on the mirror—whatever it takes.

At the end of the week, talk about it. Did you feel more connected? Did it help you handle stress better? Did you laugh more?

Your marriage thrives on connection, and connection grows through small, consistent choices. Sometimes, the spark comes back with something as simple as a hug.

So… are you in? Drop a ❤️ in the comments if you’re taking the challenge!

It’s been the craziest summer.
Construction zone. Travel. Work. Projects.
It’s easy to feel like we’re just surviving some days.

But then… Kirby walks in with sweet corn from the farmers market.
And peaches.
I didn’t ask for the peaches.
But he knew I was almost out—and got them anyway.

It’s a little thing.
But honestly, it’s not.

Because in a season where everything feels just a little chaotic…
this simple bag of corn and peaches reminded me:
he sees me.
he knows me.
he loves me in the quiet, ordinary ways.

Grateful today for the small things that speak louder than words.

What’s one little thing your spouse has done lately that made you feel seen?
