Chip and Jo jetted off on a romantic (and well deserved!) vacation to Italy in November and took it pretty easy on the first day. “We both slept for 15 hours and missed breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon of shopping with friends,” Joanna admitted in a post on Instagram. “But that rest felt good! Florence, you’re beautiful.”

Chip admits he can get a "little pompous," but Joanna always has his back (even when he's taking a fashion risk). "He competes with the view," Joanna wrote on this sceneic shot. "Man bun, tube socks, adult onesie and all... He still looks mighty fine to me."

“Somehow the cards we're dealt and Jo and I love to work together,” Chip told PEOPLE in October. “We love to be together, but we joke to some of our friends that if we hadn’t gotten so lucky we probably would have killed each other by now.”Joanna added, “We’re passionate about what we do, we love the business of home and we really like each other.”One, two, three, awwwww.

They’ve got a standing date every Tuesday night. “We tend to frequent our local holes-in-the-wall for street tacos and queso,” Joanna told PEOPLE in June. “After dinner we get ice cream and drive around Waco to go down memory lane and visit our old stomping grounds.”

For better or worse, these two always find a way to make it through the hairy times. “Chip loves to tweeze my gray hairs (I know I know not good but sometimes you just gotta do it),” she said of this photo of her husband lending a helping hand (and a sharp eye).

“Every now and then there are times when we notice we’re getting off track and have to regroup,” Chip told PEOPLE. “But it’s like everything we care about, everything that’s important to us — we know it’s going to require work.”He added, “Jo and I both made a commitment pretty early on that the two of us are the most important variable,” says Chip. “If we can figure out how to be right as a couple, then obviously we a have a lot better opportunity to be right for our kids.”

“Chip feelin’ all Tom Cruise in his white T-Shirt singing ‘Take My Breath Away,’” Joanna wrote on this video of Chip showing off some pretty slick moves (her nonstop giggles make us think she’s OK with it). “This is what happens when you film in the Texas heat all day every day.”

When They Left Fixer Upper for All the Right Reasons

Although the couple is grateful for their tenure on HGTV, Chip and Joanna are looking forward to focusing on their family. “Our beautiful children are growing up so quickly,” Joanna said in a video on their website. “I think the idea that we get to kind of step back and get a fresh vision, get some rest, but also just hunker down with our kiddos.”But Chip promised this won’t be the least we’ll see of the famous fixer uppers. “We believe in our hearts that we’re going to see you again right around the corner,” he added.
