Hello Monday- Part 1 of Romance Uncensored

Good Morning Monday!

I'm ready to start this week and whatever it may bring!

I can just feel it in my bones that it's going to be a good one!

The hubby and I went away with our church to a marriage enrichment conference.

It was called Romance Uncensored and Sextember.

Yes, you read that right.

You might be thinking "say what now"?

Let me remind you it was with our church.

And they are Baptist based. :)

There was nothing X-Rated, it wasn't about tips or techniques, it was about the beauty of marriage and enjoying quality time with your spouse.

But let me also tell you this, not a lot of churches are talking about having a Red Hot marriage these days.

In fact if you are like me, I grew up in a home where stuff like that wasn't talked about. Like, at all.

If you are slightly blushing or a little embarassed, yeah, we were too at first.

In fact we were in a large conference room with almost 500 people.

But you want to know one of the most awesome parts about the weekend?

God showed up in a BIG way.

I mean He's always around, but He was REALLY there this weekend.

It's amazing what can happen when you open up to God's favor in your life and your marriage.

And as I bet you can imagine, we learned a LOT.

And I'm definitely going to share some of the notes I took over the weekend later this week.

It was life changing for our marriage.

And just in case you are wondering if our marriage is in trouble- it's not, at all.

Do we argue and get into fuzzy's (my hubby's made up word for "fights"), of course we do! We are strong willed, stubborn, human beings! 

A marriage doesn't have to be in trouble in order for you to go to a marriage conference.

It's so important to invest and maintain your marriage just like you would a vehicle- but it's actually about a gazillion times MORE important.

The reality is that you can't afford NOT to invest in your marriage. For real!

When your marriage is Bible based and both pairs of eyes are focused on God, you can truly become one and do powerful things for your family.

And I don't know about you, but I want people to see God in my marriage.

Right before the first session began, we were enjoying coffee on the deck near the pool and we could watch the big storm roll in over the mountains.

This was the view from our hotel room balcony the next morning. What an awesome, in your face reminder of God's awesome beauty.

Ok, so I'm not going to get too heavy on this post today, but I

 will be back later in the week to share more.

It's going to be good stuff!

And I can't wait to share it with you!:)
