Everything I know about marriage I learned in a bowling alley.

The other day I attended the bridal shower of a friend, at which we were asked to write down a bit of marriage advice to give to the bride-to-be.

I picked up my pencil and was about to write "how the heck should I know" when I looked around the room and realized that with my [now] one whole year of marriage under my belt, I am the official marriage veteran among my friends.

So I tried to think of all the amazing and inspiring marital insight I have gained in the past year that would be worth passing on,

But the only thing that would come to mind was the one-year anniversary gift I got for my husband the week before.


Matching custom bowling shirts.
You see,
I really really hate bowling.

But he loves it.


So.. you know.
Embroider that on a pillow.
