    Never feel guilty for working in your marriage and relationship. Children grow up and have life of their own. And if you dont have a relationship, well it makes marriage very hard. I wish someone had taught me that and encouraged me and my husband to have that at a younger age.
    Yall are great!!! And have a beautiful and blessed relationship and family.

    Love this!! You all deserve to get away. Every married couple needs time alone. Don’t feel bad!!! Remember when your kids grow up it will be just you two so you must keep your relationship good. Hope you had a blast and stayed up and did “all the stuff” 😂 happy for you guys!!

    Two weeks before quarantine my husband and I took a cruise to the Bahamas without our 2 year old and 6 month old. We were gone 12 days. We got a lot of hate from some friends and family but it had been 3 years since we had been anywhere alone together. It was the best thing we could of done!!! We missed our babies but I loved alone time with my husband. ♥️

    • @aventuramami
      @aventuramami 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Forget the haters - they know nothing. Very glad to read that you did just that and followed your instincts together instead of caving to fear mongering and lost people who have time to insert their nose where it don’t belong and then shame others. I love hearing when people know their true power and understand that they are the ones who know best for them

  • @tiadavenport5465
    @tiadavenport5465 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Good for the two of you. This is important and maybe more important for your children. They need to see happy parents doing happy things with each other that are for adults. They need to experience time with others and how other people/families have rules etc. It will help them grow in a healthy way. Have fun and stay safe.

  • @maryamalfayed223
    @maryamalfayed223 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I became a widow when my children were young so I never got a chance to do those type of trips but you guys was so much fun to watch that I felt like I had a little break and vacation too! .. Now that the children are grown I think now I'm going to plan something thanks so much for the inspiration!🌹❤🌹

  • @tiatong9383
    @tiatong9383 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    There is Parenting with Love and Logic. You two turn it into Marriage with love and logic. Relationship goals, should write a marriage tip book. I have been married about 25 years, and Ihave learned from you two. May God keep the blessing coming! and thank you for showing the joy and laughter while also keeping it real.
