40 and Counting

Through all of what's been going on my husband and I realized that a couple of days ago was the 40th anniversary of his proposing to me.

A lot has happened since we sat in the swivel rocker in my parents home and he said "How about it?"

Yep, that was my proposal!

I guess it was lucky for both of us that I didn't play coy and say "what are you asking?"

Otherwise we would not have are two adult children, a wonderful daughter by heart and for fantastic grandchildren. We also would have never enjoyed 13 years of our little white cat Snowy, the same 13 years of our first Lucky (a German Shepherd mix), our perfect Golden retriever mix Sunshine, are much-missed Pepper the tabby and now namesakes and Chihuahua mixes Lucky and Sunshine.

We would have missed all the good times as well as the bad times that made us stronger

The various homes, the remodeling and just life in general.
When you think about it those three words have spanned four decades! The most exciting part is what it is yet to come.

Congratulations on celebrating that 40-year anniversary. We 'celebrated' our 40th wedding anniversary this year. But with nowhere to go, it didn't seem that special. We'll have to rely on memories of our cruise to Hawaii last November.

I hear you Dave! We were NOT on our usual Caribbean cruise on our anni either. Plus, no restaurants were open and I made and served my own dinner to the entire family.
We're just all holding our breath for this upcoming April-we've been quietly paying off a family cruise (for 9) so they could be there for our 2nd renewal of vows.

This is a very big breath to hold for that long at this point in time.
