Did ya miss me? This one's about Marriage!

This weekend Craig and I took a very very cool trip together.  We spent the entire weekend in the MUD, four wheelin and cuttin up.  We had soooo much fun.  Not just fun with all the other people there, but fun with each other too.  When you go to events like this you really get to watch people and observe their relationships and their dynamic with their spouse.  Craig and I are big time "people watchers".  We love to sit there are watch everyone around us.  I noticed something this weekend though.  Alot of couples that we saw just didn't seem "together".  What I mean is that they didn't seem very into their spouse, kinda disconnected.  Craig and I go to places like that together and we have fun together.  I think many couples lose that sense of being each other's best friends.  When something happens to me or I see something really cool, I think about telling Craig first.  He is my best friend, my husband, and my rock.  I know I have blogged about my G, and she is my very very very best girlfriend, but Craig is my soulmate.  He knows everything about me and can predict almost every move I make.  When everyone was loading up to head out riding, or going to grab a bite to eat, or going to watch the mud pit, alot of the couples were doing those things seperately.  That puzzles me.  The person that you are married to should be the person you want to share all of those things with, not seperately.  I also noticed that alot of those couples don't show affection or hug each other or kiss each other.  That puzzles me too.  Now, don't get me wrong....Craig and I are not attached at the hip.  We DO spend time apart too, but we do the bulk of our things together.  I wish more couples were like that.  It makes me worry about them.  I pray that those other couples work to get closer to each other.  You can tell when couples are close and REALLY deeply love each other.  We observed that while sitting at the mud pit and watching people there.  We also saw it with another couple we rode with.  You can just look at their gestures and the way they talk to each other that they are truly in love.  I pray that everyone has the opportunity to experience that, cause I guarantee, once you get it...you won't let it go.  I know I'll be holding on to my soulmate forever.  Por vida!
