A Weekend to Remember

This weekend, Matt and I went to a marriage conference put on by Family Life. It was called A Weekend to Remember. We actually got to go to the conference because it was a wedding present from some friends in Europe. It was great!! I would recommend it to any married couple, regardless of how long you've been married. There were couples there ranging from being married 3 months to 53 years.

There were a few different speakers, and each session was based on a new topic of marriage. It was funny and helped us grow closer as a couple. There were also resource books available for purchase that dealt with all the topics discussed at the conference. What a great wedding present!!


Our hotel! We stayed at the Hyatt, which is also where the conference took place.

The other 2 speakers...Larry and Anne Kayser
Saturday night was "Date Night" where we were free to do whatever we wanted. We chose to dress up and go out to eat at Olive Garden
I found a wine that I liked :)
It is called Moscato
We also got a really tasty dessert. It was a chocolate cake-ish thing with vanilla sauce and strawberries. It was super good!!

Thank you KC and Srikant Mantravadi for a wonderful wedding present!!!!
