Anniversary Today

[RLB454]

Got to hand it to my bride, 38 years today being married to me, and she has not gone to prison for killing me

Yes, that cake is over the top, but hey, it was the 80's

 

[9x19]

Congrats to you both!

 

[Chubaka]

Congrats. Hopefully yall make it another 38.

 

[ferrebee88]

Congratulations! Another 20 years and I'll be there... I wonder if your success is the same as mine? Do you remind her everyday how lucky she is to be married to you?

 

[Doom!]

Congrats, these days that's something to be proud of!

I can't for the life of me figure out why Mrs. Doom has put up with me for not quite 34 years, but I'm glad she does.

 

[Xraycer]

Congrats!

Was the first dance song by REO Speedwagon or Air Supply?

 

[RudyF6]

I love that fact that you're proud enough to tell us here. Congrats dude, that's so awesome.

Back to the cake, though...is that a chocolate fountain on top of the second layer!?

LOl,
I actually lured her in with REO "I can't fight this feeling" We paid for our wedding ourselves, and spent all our money on a photographer and the cake, couldn't afford food or dancing at the reception. But if we did have dancing, our first dance would have def been REO!
Ha ha, and we listened to Starship the whole time on our 3 day honeymoon

Yessir, I am pretty dang proud! We have overcome a lot over the years. I've never left the house without telling her bye and giving her a kiss, and tell her every morning that I love her......she don't like that when she's mad at me, but I do it anyways

Not a real fountain on the cake, just decoration, we couldn't afford a real fountain, especially a chocolate one!

We did exactly the opposite - got married at the courthouse and had a helluva' reception with a live band and open bar!

My parents made it to their 39th anniversary last May before my mom passed away later that month. I think she was holding on until that day. They were so close to 40 years. The biggest thing they taught me in life was to always say I love you because you never know when it will be your last chance to do so. I've promoted the same message amongst my own family. Nothing pisses off my 10-year-old daughter more than ending a convo with "Thank you Hun. I love you" after she thinks I hate her because I was upset with her about something she did to her little brother lol.

To this day, I tell my dad and brother I love them before hanging up the phone or saying goodbye in person. Even my few best friends in life, we exchange I love yous and hugs.

I'm not a hippy and I'm not lost on my masculinity... I like cars, guns, and a good chunk of smoked meat. The world just needs more love.

Indeed, more love and respect. Less shelfishness and pride. Aint nothing wrong at all with telling someone you love them....especially the guy at the gun counter
No one thought my wife and I would last, divorce and dissfunction riddled both of our families. We have really learned how to set our pride aside over the years with each other, and treat each other with respect, and show our love in simple ways. We have certainly had more than our share of set backs and trials, but a foundation on Gods love has had a trickle down effect towards each other.

Same here, my Mother in Law was convinced we wouldn't last a year. My family thought I would never get married so they were relieved.

There's the answer!!!!

Mrs. Doom obviously stayed with you begrudgingly out of pure spite just to prove her mother wrong!

 

[CertifiedMike]

Happy anniversary!!!

38 years is a long time!!! Did you buy her a trophy or an award?


The pic is killing me!!! Did you drive to the wedding in your Iroc?

Fun times!!!

Lol, she certainly deserves an award!

And no, didn't have an IROC, but I did have a 73' Pontiac Ventura and she had a 80' Corolla. However, we went all out and borrowed my sisters Turbo Escort for our honeymoon

No big plans for the weekend except going to see the new movie "Hail Mary" with the family. We typically like to sneak out of town on our anniversary, but we spent the funds we would have used for that for me to fly out to Washington next weekend to basically say goodbye to one of my best friends (we were in each others weddings). He has brain cancer and wont be here much longer
