We ran the annual Sunflower Relay today to celebrate our 30th anniversary coming up this summer. Along the trail, lots of folks shouted out "congratulations," some asked if we were about to get married right there, and one guy even told us he was an officiant and offered his services. At the finish, another runner came up and shared that she’d been married for 14 years. She asked what the secret is to making it to 30. Part of our answer: doing slightly ridiculous things like this together and still knowing how to play after all these years. Also, the ability to start over—again and again. When we asked her what’s kept her marriage strong, she said her husband can still make her laugh, even in the middle of an argument. So between the three of us, we landed on a simple recipe: play, humor, and forgiveness. Here’s to many more happy miles together!
