Trick Or Treat?

Us on our wedding day, July 18, 1992

FabGrandpa moved in with me on Halloween in 1991. We were carrying a dresser up the front steps to the house when these little children came running up, holding out their bags and yelling “Trick or Treat?”. FabGrandpa asked them if they wanted a pair of socks!

Life with him has not always been that fun, but it has been more fun than not. Today is our wedding anniversary. We have made it through 16 years of marriage, which for us is record breaking. Each of us has been married twice before, with none of those previous ones lasting more than 7 years. We had four children between us, and had three teenage girls living with us when our marriage began. It is a wonder he survived all that teen angst and PMS.


Us in January, 2008

So, tonight we have reservations for dinner at the North Rim Lodge. After dinner we are going to drive up to Point Imperial to watch the sun set and the moon rise. What more could a girl want?

    Just read your profile. This is my hubby & I's dream. We talk about it all the time. In about 10 years when the kids are grown, we will sell everything & hit the road in an RV. Or maybe a sailboat. Can;t make up our mind. Or maybe just both. Lucky you! 🙂

    Happy anniversary! Your celebration sounds fabulous!

    I must say, you are living the dream! I'd love to have a travel trailer & just travel. My hubby & I love exploring different cities, not so much camping grounds. 😉

    You can find mine here.
