I was blog hopping last night and came across a blog that posted a blog post on 5 Meaningful Moments and I thought what a great idea. As couples we have moments in our marriage that are very meaningful and/or memorable.
I challenge each of you to think about, write about, and share with your spouse 5 meaningful married moments that you guys have shared from the time you said I Do until present.
Here are my 5 Memorable Married Moments:
- In 2004, we renewed our vows (6th wedding anniversary) and honeymooned in Jamaica; however, the honeymoon was interrupted by Hurricane Ivan. Oh, this trip was very meaningful because I learned then to trust and rely on my husband without questioning him.
- Our date nights!
- Our Hawaii trip! I had recently had foot surgery and my hubby had to push me around Hawaii in a wheelchair most days because I couldn’t do all the walking. He didn’t even complain!
- In 2010, when the last child left home! EMPTY NESTERS…
- The birth of our first grandchild!
It was pretty hard to narrow it down to five but I had fun talking with the husband about memorable moments we have shared in our 14 years together. I couldn’t add them all, but the time discussing them was fun as well (another meaningful moment).
What a great idea for a date night: Share your memorable moments while sipping on your favorite beverage, sitting in front of a fireplace! Don’t be surprised when their list doesn’t look like your list! Hey, but the cool thing is you guys will laugh and share again the memorable moments of your marriage.
Share your memorable married moments with us in the comments below and remember to share this post with your married friends and social media friends!

One of my most memorable moments was when our town was hit by a tornado. We couldn’t reach each other and had no clue whether or not the other survived. We he finally made it home we cried and held each other. I just kept thanking God for protecting him!

Hubby and I were just sharing some of our most embarrassing moments and boy were there some funny one’s! Funny though because if those things happened today after 11 years of marriage,we wouldn’t bat an eye. LOL

I bet it’s fun to hear what your spouses favorite moments are. Things that you might not think were that special, but you find out meant so much to the one you love.

What a fun idea! I think ours would be.
1)Our wedding day. We married November of 2010 and had a blast. We still talk about it. I actually caught him watching our first dance today. : )
2) Our recent trip to NYC. It was a blast!
3) The moment we found out we were going to have our first baby.
4) Our trip to Sonoma, California.
5) Horseback riding on the beach in Mexico.

I love this post! What a wonderful idea. I think I know my five moments, when my husband gets off I’ll ask him about his.
