Well, hello!
This last summer I did a series with a guy named Dr. Norm “Normie” Thiesen, and I asked him all sorts of questions about singleness, dating and marriage. In one episode I asked him, “What questions should a young couple ask an older couple before they get married?”
He gave two answers.
Then I asked y’all a similar question, and you gave me 33 answers. Read more
Well Hello Hello!
I’ve been told that one should never explain a joke, but just in case you have never been to a bookstore, the following series is a spin-off on the book, Tuesdays with Morrie. Read more
Why do we have weddings? Is Happily Ever After real? Is it possible to help our friends stay together forever?
Since it’s “wedding season” and this is a post I hold near and dear to my heart, I felt it was time to share this baby again. Last week, I was contacted by two different friends telling me of their friends whose marriages were Read more
We had wedding bells ring this month for one of our interns (it’s one of the pre-requisites to being on the team).

(How can you not admire the chocolate fountain?) The challenge to myself and the other attendees this season is to be more committed to our friends who …
I wanted to bring closure to our wedding theme conversations by highlighting some of my favorite contributions from all of you. I asked you to send a laugh in keeping with this theme, so here is a taste of what I’ve been receiving… “Bitter Bridesmaid” featuring Wess & Annie Willis and their bridesmaid, Shannon Hannon. “Diet Starts Monday!” featuring the non vegetarian couple Michelle and Cale Disterhoft. “Timely Tourists” featuring Megan West’s wedding party. Did the creepers even know they were in the shot? …
Last weekend I had the honor of being a bridesmaid in my friend Sarah’s wedding. Despite the rain, the ceremony was one I will never forget. Maybe it was because I was holding an umbrella… or because I was barefoot… or because minutes before the ceremony Sarah was playing air hockey with her father… Those things may contribute to the memory, but the stories that were shared about Sarah and Cassidy are probably what I will hold onto the longest. I don’t think there was …
