26 Years Ago Today

July 3, 1982.....

6 p.m.....

I awaited the appearance of my bride.....

A few moments later she had become a Mrs....

I a Mr......

Both of us though....

Were still but a boy and girl.....

But very happy ones.....

And 26 years later we continue to be happy.....

Ah the joys of cohabitation......

The joys of children.....

The joys of shared sorrows.....

The joy of shared success......

"For Better or Worse"

Has been better for me.....

We celebrate 26 years of marriage today.......

We celebrate it with a road trip for a week..........

The Lexus is gonna be much nicer than the Pinto....

There is more money in the account to spend.....

The hotels will be much nicer.....

The restaurants will be somewhat more upscale than those our first trip together......

But the bride will be the same....

Only better....

And the groom will be the same....

Only bigger......

And the commitment we have shared.....

Stronger.....

Simply put..........

Tracie I love you and thank you for these 26 years......
