That’s why a marriage is a ready-made unit for the rich production and harvest of memories.
#MAKING MEMORIES WITH FULL#
Someone once said, “God gave us memories so that we could enjoy roses in January.” Let me share with you what we’ve learned about creating a vase full of long-stemmed roses in the winter: To this day, that adventure remains a fun memory of our early days together when we had no children. But we had an absolute blast driving, talking, and laughing together. Obviously, that is not the way to see Yellowstone. Then we looked at our watches and realized we’d better head home! Eight hours later, we arrived just in time to see the eruption. When we arrived, we discovered the lake had been drained, so we impulsively decided to go to Yellowstone National Park and watch Old Faithful erupt. One weekend during our first few weeks of marriage, Barbara and I decided to drive four hours north to Wyoming to go fishing. Nearly any event has the potential to become a treasured memory. Both you and your spouse need to be diligent in planning memories (as well as enjoying those that come as surprises) and taking necessary steps to save or catch memories. Memories are powerful family possessions that profoundly link hearts together. Thanks to these memory makers, and to Barbara for being a memory catcher, our family has a clear fingerprint-a family identity uniquely ours among the six billion people in the world. Skip forward a few decades, and now our walls and bookshelves hold pictures and memorabilia of experiences we’ve shared together. At that point all we had were wedding gifts, the same last name, and a few days’ worth of experiences together. I pulled over to show her a view of our new home’s setting. Barbara and I were newlyweds, and we were driving to our little apartment in Boulder.
Seating is limited.I’ll never forget stopping at an overlook on Highway 36 just outside Boulder, Colorado.
