Day 248: An ode to marriage

"A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love, trust, partnership, tolerance and tenacity. The order varies for any given year" - Paul Sweeney


Project 365: #248

This couldn't be more true! Twenty years later... two gorgeous girls, one loyal dog, two flying cats, three enormous continents, five awesome schools, eleven homely homes! We are certainly celebrating  love, trust, partnership, tolerance, and tenacity, for all of this combined must have kept us together! So, for all our friends and family who truly know us and the fake happy family pics on facebook:
"A successful marriage isn’t the union of two perfect people. It’s that of two imperfect people who have learned the value of forgiveness and grace"- Darlene Schacht....and as we get older, and hopefully wiser and less stubborn, forgiveness and grace are much easier. Here is to the next twenty years together with my very best friend, wherever they may take us! P.S. Thank you for putting up with me!

  2. Congrats Sarah and Mike. Fantastic!

    The sound advise of Uncle George was, "Love and fresh air. When there is no more love, go outside and get some fresh air".

    Uncle George and aunt Enid were married for 71 years.

    Cheers
