      I think this is the only video of the burnout, came from my dad's camera; so it's not the best quality...

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      Big time Congrats!!!!!

      Don't listen to the whiners, they're just ticked that someone else might get it right. Getting hitched was the single best thing I/we have ever done! We've been married 7 years, and I LOVE it!!!!

      As for advice, two books come to mind.

      Love and Respect: it comes from a Christian perspective, but even if you aren't an active Christian, or even Christian at all for that matter, it gives a lot of insight as to why we can tick each other off so much without even trying. Great book that definitely helped a good marriage get better.

      Any book by John Gottman: He's been studying relationships for something like 20 years and his insights are fantastic!

      Remember, marriage takes hard work and lots of care and feeding. It always amazes me when guys will spend countless hours and unbelievable amounts of money on the care and maintenance of a car, but think that the wedding was the last time they had to do anything to keep their marriage healthy!

      Best of luck to you and your wife!!!! Keep working at it and you will find that you have started a journey that will be the ride of your life!!!

      Shiny Side Up!

      Sandra actually really likes burnouts. She turned around and was like "that's a lot of smoke!, you can smell it too!". And then I did a little powerslide around the next corner, you can kind of hear it in the background.

      Sandra and I have been together for 6 years in December, We started dating when I was 16 and she was 15. My first, only and last; I know cheesy, but true. This just makes what we are legal.

      Thank you guys for the insight, I have a feeling that this relationship won't take too much work. It hasn't so far!

      Congratulations to you both!
      Remember this, Marriage not only makes you legal, but is a commitment you have made to each other before God and your family. When both people remember this, and act accordingly, your lives together will be Peaceful and blessed.

      I met you both a couple months back, at Angeles crest. You two seem great together! I wish you both well.

      All true!
      However, if you pick your mate carefully from the beginning, it all comes so much easier.

      Also, if anyone is interested, check out The proper care and feeding of marriage by Dr. Laura.

      It looks like you found the right one right off the batt! It took me a little while but have been married 6 yrs(dated for 4 before that). Don't kid yourself, it takes work! Especially going through your 20's. If you plan on having kids that makes things interesting! Respect yourself, respect her. You will have your battles but step back and work your way through it. Don't sell your toys! Worked for me.

      Thats GREAT>>>>>>

      Just got back from our 5yr anniversary (oct 4th) and we also found out that we are having a boy

      Honestly, its great and I wouldn’t do anything different. I dated my wife, Katie since high school thru college and then we got married.

      3 things and they are very true.....

      If it has boobs or tires its going to cost you money. You arent going to belive all the stuff girls want that you didn’t think about. Kind of like bringing that new project car into the shop and stripping it down for the first time, they are full of expensive surprises you didn’t count on...

      Second,
      Every time you "got it" in the past you need to put a Jelly bean in a jar. After your married, that’s how much you are going to get for ever. Use your Jelly beans wisely...hint, keep putting them in the jar for the first 3 months, you will thank me later

      Third and pay attention to this.....

      Its only as hard as YOU make it !!! Love only goes so far, its more work than most are willing to put into it....
