smiles....PhiGirl2005
Honestly this is just an insight and nothing more- after having 4 children, 30 plus years of marriage, having three children that are grown (one is still at home-he was a major opps), two which have their own families, experienced both the ups and downs of life-my husband and I do not take life so seriously. He was committed to his frat in college-and still is on a different level. In college he did philantrophy events, held office, and had formals. They also did goofy and fun stuff like had panty and bra raids on different sorority houses. This was also the era of intense hazing and drunken parties which were held at the fraternity house. Today we consider this a risk management nightmare-then a normal part of Greek life. In fact I was hazed as a pledge. It was a different era.
However both my husband look back at our life and we think we were all mature at the age of 30...now we laugh at concept. Heck we don't know what life was until after the age of forty. Yes I do tease him about the immature guy stuff and he teases me about some of things I do-my cooking club, my buying a channel purse last year and my scrapbooking hobby. However, through everything we have experienced during the last 40 years it has been out committment to each other that has helped us through the bad times and made the good times even better. That is not to say keeping that relationship strong did not take a lot of work and a loads of communication on both of our parts.
