About Us: Sara + Shaun, Married 1 Year.

The Davester and I have the seven year itch. That’s right. SEVEN years of wedded bliss. {Total lie, marriage is hard work, yo.} While we’re celebrating our anniversary this week, I’ve asked some of my favorite bloggers and their husbands to share some words on marriage.

Sara has me drooling with envy at every gorgeous space she and Shaun have renovated in their first house.  She chronicles every bit of it at her blog Russet Street Reno.  I mean really, what girl wouldn’t love her own dressing ROOM?  Get yourself over there to drool over the den and the master… even the coat closets get the Sara touch!  I want to live closer so I can have her over to pick colors and build insane bookcases and reno everything in our house too.

How many years have you been a couple & who liked whom first?

We've been a couple for 7 years, we met at a bar and both liked each other immediately!

What has being married taught you?

To not sweat the small stuff and have fun as much as possible.

What is the most fun thing the two of you have ever done together? 

Our honeymoon in Jamaica is holding steady as the most fun we've had together - not counting all the daily fun we have with our 2-month-old son Ashford!

How do you resolve issues?  Do you ever go to bed angry? 

We resolve arguments by cooling off until we can talk about it rationally.  This means that sometimes we do go to bed angry or go visit friends/family separately to give us time to think about the other's point of view. 

What is the secret to a happy marriage? 

I think it's to marry your best friend, but I'd like you to tell me since you've been married much longer than me :)
