#HappyMarriage #Groopic

August 15, 2013

written by Cathy Baker, Happily Married for 19 years (why does that make me sound old?! ha!)

I posted this on my own blog on Tuesday this week, in celebration of my 19th anniversary. I thought I’d share it here too, because it’s always good to pause and think about what we are doing to build strong relationships.

Obviously not all of these, but many of them also apply to #HappyKids too. And obviously, what works for us, may not work for you, we’re all different!

But I hope this encourages you in your relationships today!

And one more thing… if you are somewhere and want a picture together…GROOPIC is an awesome app for only 99 cents!! It slices two pics together, so it looks like we’re really riding together (and yes, while we did ride 19 miles together, we aren’t really riding side by side for this picture.) This picture is on the Katy Trail in Rocheport, Missouri during our anniversary get-a-way!

Here’s one more…13 miles canoeing the Jack’s Fork River together, but we aren’t really sitting in the canoe together for the picture, but when it’s just us, GROOPIC offers an awesome way to capture the fun, ‘together’! 🙂
