Giveaway Winner: What’s Your Secret for a Happy Relationship?
After a devastating divorce leaves Adam Colby heartbroken, he is not sure how he can put the pieces of his life back together. He wonders if even God can make sense of the mess that remains-until a package of mysterious postcards that direct Adam to the story of Gabe and Huck Alexander. Drawn by her desire to find a true soulmate, Pearl “Huck” Huckabee breaks a turbulent engagement with her fiancé to marry Gabe Alexander, a man she’s known just a few short weeks. Wanting to celebrate and protect their love, Gabe mails her a meaningful postcard every week-beginning in 1926-for the next sixty years. Designed to arrive on Fridays, each postcard not only contains an original poem, but holds precious truths, the sum of which answer the universal question: what makes a marriage last? As Adam begins to uncover the Alexanders’ secret, he records Gabe and Huck’s extraordinary romance. It’s a process that will change his life forever.
In this giveaway, sponsored by Forever Friday by Timothy Lewis, we asked you to submit an original image that represents your secret to a happy relationship.

Cherish the moment of togetherness, because the sun will fall, creating a sunset, and the moment might be gone too soon. -Unknown quotes
This image was taken from our driveway. We spend many evenings out there together; he ropes his roping dummy & I sit on the tailgate of the pickup while we talk. I think it’s important to relish the moments that you spend together…those doing nothing moments. Moments like that keep us close.
