All normal couples fight. And I promise that we are very "normal" in that regards. Mandy and I have fought about dirty laundry, putting our kids to bed, who's cleaning up the dog puke on the carpet and where we're eating for dinner. Any of those sound familiar? Dragging it Out Back

If there is one thing I have learned during my ten years of marriage it's that praise... can take you a long way. Giving praise that is. Of course, "getting" praise is even better. Let's be honest, we all like to feel appreciated. We like to feel needed. And loved. And like we mean something

The first date that I ever took Mandy on was to a place that is known for its "all you can eat fried chicken". Keeping it classy, huh? Thankfully I impressed her enough that she agreed to go out on a second date with me. :) If there's one thing we love to do together, it's eating out. We
