Invitation to post

               Consider this your personal invitation to share
                                     your story with us.

 We would love to hear about one of your anniversaries. Because our anniversary is December 16th  Christmas is always a part of our celebration.  Sometimes it seem's hard to keep it from overshadowing what should be our special day.  Everyone's mind is on the holiday ( including mine) and getting them to refocus on us is a challange. It may sounds selfish, but we think each anniversary should be celebrated as one of the most important days of the year.

Will You Forget

This is for all you new brides & grooms ( married less than 20 years).  On each anniversary write down what you got for each other.  Keep it simple like the example below or any way that works for you.

Year               Card                   Present                    Dinner

1                     romantic               necklace               Tavern on The Green
2                     funny                    mixer                   Taco Bell        (HE WILL PAY FOR THIS)
3                    hand made            poinsettia              White Castle

Now I know you do not believe you will ever forget a moment of your anniversaries, like you will never forget a moment of your wedding day, but trust me it happens.  It happens to everyone.  Yes guys it even happens to your spouse!!!!! I am sure she would never admit it.   I remember every one of my 49 anniversaries from the time we got up in the morning untill we went to sleep that night, and every moment in-between.  If you believe me I have a beautiful bridge I will be glad to sell you for a hundred dollars.  lol

So Much In Love 1963

Our love song in 1963 was  “So Much In Love” The Tymes 

If not I would have been singing “The End of the World” Sketter Davis

I decided being married 50 years is one of the most important events in a gal's life, and certainly worth celebrating.  Now I know they say a girls wedding day is the most important day in her life, but I would argue her golden anniversary is even more so. After all how many brides make it to their 50th anniversary?  I am not sure but I would guess not more than twenty percent. * One thing I know for sure if I don't declare it & make it important in my life no one else will and it will pass unnoticed. (so sad)  My golden rules for living a joyful life is I get to decide what's important & worth celebrating.  To celebrate this monumental event I have decided to blog about 49 years of marriage and count it down to 50.  They say one picture if worth a thousand words so here we go. Below is the result of the commitment Joe & I made all those years ago and I bet if you asked any one of them they would tell you how happy they are about that.
