    Anniversary

    My Wife and I will celebrate # 43 tomorrow. She has knocked herself out cooking for Thanksgiving and decorating for Christmas so I doubt that we will do anything special until next week. We got married right out of high school at 18. I wonder what the odds were against that working? The amazing thing is that we still like each other!!!

    Congratulations Lightman,that’s a long time for a woman to be in paradise. We just hit #47 last May, and young folks today get married for better or worse but not for long. Enjoy the Hollidays.

    Kids today can't comprehend commitment and "for better or worse"! 48 for me and the war department, and still counting!

    their idea of long term commitment is a cell phone contract longer than 1 year

    Congratulations to you and your wife. We hit 51 years last June, we were young and dumb and pregnant back then, but have persevered and can't imagine life without her.

    OK...I'm the youngin so far...Next June will be 30 years for us. Problems along the way?...sure thing...but I never expected it to be 100% free of issues. The secret is a willingness to work through the problems, love one another, respect one another, and keep God first in our relationship.

    And....Congrats on your anniversary

    It will be 50 for us on the 30th of this month. When we set the date we didn't think about the 30th of Nov. was the last weekend of deer season. My best man, all the grooms men(my cousins), my uncles, and all my friends were madder than wet hens. But they came. But if looks could kill, and so on. They lightened up at the reception because I think one of them spiked the refreshments.
