Vow PAGE 1
Happiness comes in all shapes and sizes during the holiday season. The delicious sprinkles on your favorite sugar cookies, the little box with a shiny new pair of earrings, or maybe it’s the warm wishes from your family in a small card that really brings you joy. No matter what gets you in the holiday spirit, it is always a joyous, yet hectic season filled with parties, gifts, and of course family.
How do you balance it all as a couple? Oftentimes, hectic schedules mean stress and less focus on your relationship. A few simple gestures can make all the difference in your holiday experience with your significant other.
One way to really stay connected is to make your gift shopping list together. Decide on a budget, and stick to it. Unnecessary arguing about overspending can occur when guidelines are not discussed prior to paying at the check-out counter.
Also, make the gifts you give to each other memorable, not expensive. It’s not about who can spend more money or get the most glitzy gift. Dig deep and think of one thing that you know will rock their world, and make it happen.
Take time to connect.
VOW Marriage Workshops are scheduled on most Saturdays from 8am - 5pm and costs $25 per couple. This workshop gives you the chance to mingle with other couples and strengthen your marriage at the same time.
For more information or to pre-register, call 903-232-1700 or visit wevownow.org and luvlasts.org.
HolidayHappiness Let’s not forget the big elephant that’s always in the room, and
that is the monumental decision of which parents’ house you will be at this holiday. Many couples have extended family, and it is twice as hard to make the rounds if they are spread out across the state or even the country. Sometimes avoiding one side of the family can lead to hurt feelings and resentment. Balancing time with your extended family is always a part of a relationship, and communicating early on about family plans can make the holiday a much more enjoyable time.
Every season, there is always ‘The List’. Nope, it’s not Santa’s list. But the honey-do list that can only get longer if it’s not tackled in a timely manner. What’s on this list? For starters, you need to dig out the lights and ornaments still sitting in storage, sign all the holiday cards, and there are cookies and treats to be baked! Your household to-do list always gets longer during this season, and it’s a great idea to split the work in half. That way more stress won’t be put on one person to get all the little tasks done.
Remember, be merry and have a happy holiday season with your loved ones. Enjoy each other, cherish the moments, and tomorrow the memories will be priceless.
