The Biggest Argument We Kept Having When We First Got Married

The Biggest Argument We Kept Having When We First Got Married

This post is sponsored by our friends at You Need A Budget.

When we first got engaged, things moved pretty quickly from there, and 10 months later we were officially married. There were a lot of adjustments and new experiences that were happening in a very short amount of time, and they were all equally exciting and challenging. But there was one issue that kept coming up again and again, and we kept having the same argument over and over. Can you guess what it was about?

Do You (or Your Significant Other) Snore?

A95300F2-9123-4EB7-8F5F-876B0F7260DD_Original.jpeg

The other morning when we were still in bed and had just woken up, PJ played a video (but didn’t show me what it was) of the most awful, terrible sound. It was of someone snoring in their sleep and it sounded like a slow, grumbly freight train that was about to be derailed. It hurt my ears.

As it turns out, the person snoring was me. I couldn’t believe it. I think I denied it for 5 minutes straight, but he assured me it was, in fact, me. He’s told me for the past 2 or 3 years that I snore, but he’s never captured it on camera before, so maybe a small part of me didn’t believe him (or didn’t want to). Now that I know, I’m on the search for ways to eliminate my snoring before it becomes unbearable. Or maybe it already has. I woke up to an empty bed a few months ago because PJ had to go sleep on the couch in the middle of the night because my snoring kept WAKING HIM UP. Isn’t that awful?

I’ll keep you updated if I find anything useful! In the meantime, I’m so curious: do you or your significant other snore, too?

The First Night I Ever Spent With My Husband

The First Night I Ever Spent With My Husband

10 years ago on this day, we spent the night together for the first time in PJ’s 600 sq ft house after texting each other for two days straight. How has it already been a decade? At the same time, it feels like it’s been 100 years. Here’s how it all went down…

The One Thing People Don't Tell You About Coming Out

The One Thing People Don't Tell You About Coming Out

Coming out is hard. But besides that, it’s also freeing, scary, exhilarating, emotional, and one of the most important things we’ll go through as members of the LGBTQ+ community. But there’s one thing that didn’t occur to us after we came out all those years ago…

Thank You For Being You

I love you. I understand you, every part of you because you're so easy to understand but more complicated than anyone I've ever met and I like it that way to be honest because you keep me guessing and wondering how I made it so long without you and as I'm sitting here writing this and it's one in the morning and you're passed out beside me, I'm wishing I'd known you forever but in a way I feel like I have because it's hard to remember my life before you but I know what my life is now with you and the impact you've had on it and how even after all this time I'm still in awe of your hard work and your determination and your humor and the voices you make that get me every time and your muscles and your smile and how you always seem to be able to fix everything and no one will ever love you as much as I love you, but that's not to say you're not lovable- you're the most lovable actually, it's just I can't properly express my feelings for you with these words because they won't fit or maybe they haven't been invented yet, but all I know is that even if we never buy another house or you lose all of your muscles and the voices stop or maybe one day you aren't able to fix something, I will always always ALWAYS find a reason to celebrate you because of all of the above and more. Thank you for being you.

The Biggest Thing We Would Change About Our Wedding

We’re coming up on our fourth wedding anniversary in a less than two months, and we get questions all the time about our big day. Did we go big or small? Where was the location? How many people came? The truth is, we wouldn’t change a thing about our wedding, except for one major thing.
