We were very creative back in the day!

If you can understand the message then you are old school too.

#FBF Challenge is test your skills and figure out what the messages are and then send it to your spouse to see if they can get figure it out too (without Google preferably).

The great thing about your kids is: you raise them, they grow up, and then they LEAVE! And if you have not nourished your relationship with your spouse during those child rearing years, you have a higher likelihood of divorcing.

Our philosophy for our marriage is that God needs to come first, then your spouse, and then dem kids. Your marriage should be a model for your kids on how to prioritize and nurture relationships.

So don't sacrifice your lifelong partnership and helpmate for kids, who will create their own separate lives, and then stick you in senior living

One thing I love about FB is that it will send me memories of pictures that I posted years ago and it instantly takes me back to that moment!

So tonight, as part of your date night, go through your pictures of when you all were dating. Reminisce on the best spots you all visited and even the dates that didn't go as planned. I'm sure you will be able to fine the humor in it now

Houston will have the perfect snuggle weather tonight, but if that's not the case, set the atmosphere and have a fun trip down memory lane!

In the first years, you are laying the foundation of what your marriage will be built on; which takes a lot of work and energy. In later years, you will go through different trials, but since you have a solid foundation, there are no worries about your house (marriage) falling down.

Confidence is built through adversity and perseverance.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY CHALLENGE!!! For those who's love language is quality time....this challenge is perfect for you! Get with your bae and reminisce by watching your wedding video! What memories and feelings did you get after watching it?

Didn’t have a wedding ceremony or didn’t like it? Then spend some time talking about your dream wedding and go BIG!

Happiness is a feeling that is fleeting and there is no way that 2 different people with different backgrounds can come together and make each other happy all the time, every day.

Happiness is a personal choice and you cannot rely on a person or situation to fulfill that emotion for you.

Marriage is beautiful, blessed, and sacred; a representation of God and his bride the church, but it will require work. Will you have happy moments and memories? Of course! But it won't always be that way, so choose today to be in it even when you do not "feel" happy.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY CHALLENGE: Remember when we used to write letters and notes in school to be passed to the girl/boy you were crushin' on? Let's take it back for a minute and write a love letter to your significant other and leave it in a place where they least expect to find it. Make your #1 love feel extra special today!

BONUS POINTS: Extra points if you can fold your love letter in a way like you did back in school.

Make sure to snap a picture and tag @bsideofmarriage so we can see your creativity!

Introducing our #MarriageMythbusterMondays, where we will debunk some myths people have when it comes to marriage. The first one up (and one of my biggest pet peeves) is - You Complete Me! This is awesome for the movies, especially any 90’s drama, but this will not help you find your perfect mate and help you show up strong in your marriage!
