my in-laws are not exactly the disgustingly sweet romantic type. in fact, i don't think i've ever seen them kiss in front of 'us kids'. but having celebrated 26 years of marriage, i know they've had their rough spots, and have come out for the better, with a strong bond, and a loving marriage.
my father-in-law is an avid football fan, so, not being able to picture them as ooey-gooey lovers, i was impressed to hear that, while they were dating, she learned to like football as an excuse to spend time with him.
i've never liked football... never really understood it, never really cared. and then one day a few weeks ago, i sat down on the couch next to matt as he watched the seahawks, and a lightbulb went on. all of a sudden, i understood the game. {well, the basics anyway.}
so as we were planning our day on sunday, we decided that we'd stay home and watch the football game. and it clicked -
what a great way to spend some time together.
thanks, clarice. great idea.

I've been trying to spend time with my hubby by going golfing with him and watching golf on TV. It's a bit boring, but I'm becoming a better golfer and starting to like it :)
