DanvillRob Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 My bride and I have been married for 36 years. Some photos, (in relatively chronological order) About 1977, (Christmas, I think) I'm thinking early 1978 As we left for our honeymoon, (we actually drank that champagne as we drove to Carmel) At a work function, in 1981 Celebrating our 5th Anniversary in Carmel, (1983) Probably 1984, (I'm guessing our son is about 5) 1988, (at me Surprise 40th Birthday Party) At our 25th Anniversary, (we renewed our vows....2003) A couple of years ago.... truly blessed.
Kaiser Bill Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Congratulations Rob... I wish you many more. My 25th is the day after Christmas.
Thunderchild Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Happy & proud to say our 30th will be in two weeks. And yes, I married up! ps: Congrats Rob, did you notice how quick the time went? Hope you two have many more. pps: For our wives, a John Lennon lyric, " Grow old along with me, the best is yet to come" TC
Tman Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Big time congratulations! You look like 2 movie stars
IanHenry Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Many Congratulations, your a very lucky man, enjoy your day! Ian
DanvillRob Posted April 22, 2014 Author Posted April 22, 2014 I think it's wonderful that there are so many of us here who have been married for a long time.... shows that we ARE committed!! And TMan..... ONE of us looks like a movie star...the other looks like a horny little dog! But like TC, I obviously married 'up'!
krock Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Congratulations, and I think it goes without saying that your other half is beautiful. Oh, and great lamb chops
Dennis G Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Congrats! I've been married for 33 years; 18 to my first wife, 8 to my second and 7 to the current Mrs. G...oh wait, I don't think that's what you meant
milod Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Congrats Rob to you both. 39 here to the same girl. She, of course, hasn't yet hit "39," so it's lucky we could marry prior to her birth. <chortle> But as to the lines "the best is yet to come," that's a theft from Robert Browning: Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made: Our times are in His hand Who saith "A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!'' The poem's name is "Rabbi Ben Ezra," and Browning was dead and gone by the end of 1889. By the way, it wasn't boy-girl romantic per se. m
milod Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Here's one I've used. Credit the Immoral Bard, though, and not me... And usually I've ended the quote after "her infinite variety." Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety; other women cloy The appetites they feed, but she makes hungry Where most she satisfies; <grin> m
Brytam Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Congrats! Great thing to celebrate! Will be our 34th this year.
pippy Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 My heartiest congrats to you both, DanvillRob! I think some more Champagne is required.... P.
Blueblooded Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Congratulations to you and the Mrs, DR! And a great display of your progression through time together. I'm always happy to see others (as many of you on here) going the long haul with their soul mate. Me and my bride will hit 33 in July. Love of my life. And KRock - I think you mean Mutton chops (not Lamb chops... LOL!).
krock Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 And KRock - I think you mean Mutton chops (not Lamb chops... LOL!). In the area I'm from people always referred to them as lamb chops, but in either case it means the same thing and is way before my time
cookieman15061 Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Congrats buddy! Me and the Mrs. celebrated 33 yrs on April 3rd. I'm not getting older, I'm getting better.
rocketman Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Congrats! I have half as many as you do with my wife, but I feel equally blessed. Although I still suffer from AMPS (Absent Minded Professor Syndrome), she's been slowly curing me over the years. For example, I can actually coordinate my attire about half the time correctly these days! When we first got married she'd get up early just to make sure I was dressed correctly (I left the house a lot earlier than she did).
Rosemarie Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Happy Anniversary to you and your wife! The very BEST of wishes for many more years if health and happiness! As of August 4th of this year, my husband and I will be together for 23 years. We married on May 12th almost two years ago. (Yes, I guess that makes me the Poor, Southern New Jersey version of Shannon Tweed! ). Seriously, though, like you I am blessed with an outstanding spouse who could have left many times due to the many medical issues I've had - but chose to stay. The past few months alone could have broken any man, but he still stands strong beside me. The rest of my life to this point has been rather crappy, but I feel like I hit the lottery the day he walked up to me and said "Hello".

Congrats Rob. My 25th is this September. I love the Fumanchu stash, I use to have one back in the day.
