my favorite person!!

the husband and i have been trying to spend more quality time together the last few weeks.  it amazes me how much we get sucked into the busy-ness of life!! taking that much needed time together is so essential to a happy, successful relationship.

time away from phones, from technology, from work, from chores, and from the babies that we love so much!! to be honest, we have not been very good at date night since the moment we had kids.  i mean, yes it happens every so often.  but it has never been our top priority. although it has always been on my mind, we have never made the time to do it as often as possible.

when husbands (or wives) work, all the house chores, and routines we get into with the little ones date night gets pushed to the back burner. and it absolutely shouldn't be that way.  it should be apart of our daily routines!

i can't even begin to tell you how much of a difference it has made in dave and i's relationship to take that quality time EVERY SINGLE DAY or NIGHT to hang out with each other, to talk to each other!! we have been going on tons of dates and vacations with each other. and although i do love my little girls so dang much, he is my favorite person in this entire world. (the girls are right behind him!!) he makes me happy. and i love him with my whole heart!

things have been so great between us lately, that ending the weekends and starting a new week has been so dang hard for me.  all i want to do is be with him. and the girls. having fun!!! not working!

this past saturday, dave and i took some time together to explore the new(ish) city that we live in.  it's not more than 10 minutes from where we grew up, but neither of us had been up farmington canyon. so up to the mountains we went!!! and it was so much fun, it was soooo green and beautiful and so much different than bountiful!

and then later that night, we spent a few hours at lagoon just the two of us!! it was a fun filled day with my babe. and it made me happy!!

so im telling you, if you think your relationship is slacking- try putting life aside and spending quality time with your lover!!!
