Definitely looks like a winner for when we have kids because if there is one financial thing me and the hubby disagree on is money and kids hahaSometimesphotojenikhttp://www.sometimesphotojenik.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-53421953823402948272014-10-23T07:43:16.812-06:002014-10-23T07:43:16.812-06:00I think it would be fun to go through the book per...I think it would be fun to go through the book periodically as we get older. I'm sure some of our answers and opinions will change throughout the years, and going through the book again could be a good opportunity to discuss our opinions.Rebecca Petersenhttp://renovatingrebecca.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-16070986601070105912014-10-23T07:40:30.819-06:002014-10-23T07:40:30.819-06:00these are great ideas!

Before getting engaged, we read/worked though the book, "1001 Questions to Ask Before Getting Married." We also went to pre-marital counseling and I would recommend it to every engaged couple! We've never attend Financial Peace, but we have read "Total Money Makeover" which I think every adult should read in their lifetime!Rebecca Petersenhttp://renovatingrebecca.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-13947571265772442602014-10-14T16:46:05.817-06:002014-10-14T16:46:05.817-06:00I'm glad you agree! :-) I think culture defini...I'm glad you agree! :-) I think culture definitely focuses on the wedding aspect- if you google top 10 things to do before your wedding it's almost ALL talking about stuff regarding the wedding (weight loss etc.). I think if more focus was put on doing things for the marriage, then maybe more marriages would last.Sometimesphotojenikhttp://www.sometimesphotojenik.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970647561564962542.post-25091815639847121372014-10-14T11:48:59.773-06:002014-10-14T11:48:59.773-06:00Yes!

Love that you highlighted investing in your marriage (counseling, books, etc) and not just the wedding itself. I totally agree!Allie Seidelhttp://www.alliewaydesign.comnoreply@blogger.com
