Twenty-three years of weddedness

Happy Anniversary to us. It was on this day in 1982 that we assembled upon this hill and had the best damn low cost wedding anybody ever saw. It was a good one, I'm tellin' ya.

We still had our moms with us then. I wish they were here now.

My mom made the dresses and Jim's shirt. We did the flowers. A friend made the cake. We had potluck food which was awesome. Our talented friends provided the entertainment. We danced for hours.

Then Jim and I went on a honey of a honeymoon. We camped around the desert southwest. We toured the Grand Staircase (Grand, Bryce and Zion canyons), dug ourselves out of a sand dune at Lake Powell and wrapped it up at Milsap Bar in California.

It was a great start for a wonderful marriage. There have been some tough times but I sure have had a lot of fun with this guy. One of the toughest times we've been through is going on right now. He's been amazing through it all.

But really, it's been fun. We have a wonderful creative partnership. Our gifts blend well. One of the things I enjoy most is doing some kind of project with Jim. Whether it's working out some music, building a studio or creating a new Halloween display piece it's always fun.

He truly is my better half.

We've been married 23 years but we've been together since highschool. That's 32 years.

Sorry about the two posts in a row, but I couldn't think of anything clever to put in the first post until after I posted it.

Oh, and sorry about the third and fourth posts too. I just felt a need to explain.
