A little over 1 year ago Bryan and I both sat down separately and completed the below statements. See here. I told him then that I wanted us to do this every year. I'm pretty sure he hoped I would forget. But I didn't forget. And after 1 month of bugging him, I successfully forced him to complete these statements. I want to track our growth, our life changes, our priorities, etc. with this...
Kate
I Am... full of wanderlust.

ReplyDeletePS You're like the prettiest person, ever.
WOW, this is such a good idea! I looooovvveee it! Maybe I can talk the boyfriend into doing it. Oh and could yall settle down on the attractiveness?! Haha yall are a gorgeous couple! :]
ReplyDeleteI did this I AM thing last year too. Love it :) I was actually working on posting it again soon...maybe I'll copy you and have Tony do it as well, I love that you both did it. So fun!! :)
ReplyDeletewhat a fantastic idea!!! Yall are too cute!
ReplyDeleteLove, Love, Love this!! What a fantastic idea.
ReplyDeleteSo for one, I'm bummed to hear about your car situation. Two, it broke my heart to hear you talk about your niece and nephew. I hate that situation for you. Hard to make sense of that. Three, I am wondering who you are referring to when you say you regret saying "it's a must" to someone, though I'll probably never know. Love this idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute, I always love reading the guys answers!! Y'all are a precious couple :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I think Ben and I will do this, this weekend! Bryan....I hear my wife...sometimes! That cracks me up!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea!
ReplyDeleteAwesome post Kate!
xx
This seems like a really good little project to do with your spouse. I was just thinking yesterday, how I wonder if Kenny and I want different things in life. That thought really scares me. Kenny is so content with how our life is, but I am definitely looking for a better life for our children and for us.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet, I read your previous one not too long ago. It must be interesting to look back and see how things changed!

Love this! Hope you had a nice visit home!!!
ReplyDeleteI read your new answers then old answers. So interesting! Some of the responses changed, while other stayed the same... which didn't surprise me for the ones that stayed the same. I think this is an awesome exercise. Maybe M and I will do this and a year from now to see if/how things change.
ReplyDeletegreat idea! You guys are soooo cute!!

"it's a must" is something you can always say to me. :) and i guarantee your niece and nephew remember you.

ReplyDeleteSo cute. Do you mind if I do this on my blog as well? (I'll give you credit)

ReplyDeleteI hear : what my wife has to say... sometimes. LOL!!!!!! LOVE this. Def a new follower... I adore you guys!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am... trying to convince Joe to do this. He told me I have to sign a waiver stating I won't get mad at his answers. I am..scared.
ReplyDeleteKate kate this is a test for you :)
ReplyDeleteWow, love it!! Might have to get the husband to do this with me! So cute!
ReplyDeleteThis is SO awesome. What a great way for you two to keep track of your progress/changes.
ReplyDeleteI think I might steal this and do it with my fiance once we're married.
AND, thanks for being real.
This is SO sweet. LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteOn our wedding day, we had a "time capsule" where all our guest could put their two cents in, however we did something a little like this where we answered questions prior to the wedding day.
I may steal this and start it everything - if it's okay? I love memories!
Great post Kate, praying for your Momma♥
This is SUCH a great idea! What a fun way to look back at where you were year after year!
