Yes, I know that when this photo was taken, you were the Boyfriend. But it was clear where things were headed. (Even though we’d taken a wrong turn and were completely lost in the Sierras. On foot.) (Okay, on cross country skis, which was even worse, because (a) to get back to the highway we had to go uphill, and (b) we didn’t know how to ski. Good thing we had provisions. And a sense of humor.)
Dear husband, thanks for asking me to make it legal. Happy anniversary. I’m still game to go for 50 if you are.

My, my. I remember the day. No one thought it would last. After all, he was a hippy and you were…well, HE was a hippy! Truth be told, we all knew it was a match made to last: you are meant for each other.
Congratulations! and here’s to 25 more, at least. Maybe in this 25 Meg will at last do some of the nurturing, right, Husband?

WOW! Congratulations! 25 years is a huge accomplishment. So Meg and Husband, what is your secret to a long and happy marriage?

Meg, congratulations to you and he. And may there be many more………!

Thanks for all the ‘ations, guys.
mom2bnsb — I mean, sleeplessnsb — thanks for going along with the “25″ story. We wouldn’t want our kids to discover that the real number is 14.
No, okay — she’s accurate. It was an arranged marriage. Child bride and groom. A clan thing — I’m from Oklahoma and he’s from West Virginia. Snart was a bridesmaid. She had to get her mommy’s permission to cross the street to the church.
The secret, Monita? Generosity. We take turns letting each other win when we square off in the ring for Ultimate Fighting Championship bouts.

Fifty sounds good to me. Oh, and soon we get the house to ourselves!

Happy Anniversary!
Was it really 25 years ago that Tom and I drove “Husband’s” little white truck to the car wash? Having the shaving cream words “just married” written all over the truck got us lots of attention!
See you at Chaucer’s in June.

Belated, but heartfelt, congratulations to Meg and Husband.
