Happy Anniversary to us!!

We celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary today(it's actually 11-29 but we couldn't get a sitter that day).


No kids, no schedule.

We spent the day visiting antique and Salvation Army stores around 3 counties.


It's cool when a guy finds a girl that is just perfect for him. You guys that have been married a while know what I mean.

Having my wife next to me whilst driving the 911 was a great feeling.

Congrats!! We celebrated our 28th last weekend in Reno/Sparks, NV. It was cool until the Hell's Angels and the Vacos motorcycle gangs got in a gun fight in a casino. 35, 000 Harley riders, you can carry concealed without a permit, casinos and alcohol, what could go wrong? After 28 years, two grown up kids, and three years dating before that, she still gets my motor running.

Edit: No kids, but you couldn't get a sitter? For what? your poodle?

We have 2 kids, Hugh. Grandma couldn't watch them until this weekend.

Usually, we have the kids with us wherever we go. The house sure was quiet tonight.

Ok Wayne, let's review: 10th anniversary, no kids... so you went antiquing?? Before or after you made like wild rabbits???

Just kidding. If you're like me you're happy when she's happy. And if she likes cruising around in an old Porsche? Life is good.
Congrats on beating the odds.

Auto correct on? Fricken autocorrect drives me crazy sometimes!

Congrats, it sounds like a cool way to spend your anniversary.

You bet it is, and you bet I do! Monday will mark our 29th anniversary. I plan to treat my sweetie very well indeed on that day. Well, hell - I do my best to treat her well every day. She has been, and continues to be, very patient with me. An angel, I think probably.

Oh, and for the record, she was driving a 914/6 when I met her. She's pretty cool.

My wife and I are cut from different cloth... it's a Jeep thing that apparently I won't understand. But I have convinced her not to shift the Porsche below 4000rpm. Love is truly a wonderful thing....

17 years for us as of today (10.1.11). We agreed to commit to another 17. Once the next 17 are up we'll decide if we want to renew again.

Congrats Wayne!


I'm still looking for that girl. I definitely didn't find her tonight. I'll try again next weekend.
