Some Enchanted Evening...


Thirty-two years ago TODAY, I met this handsome fellow!  Six years later in July of 1985, we were married, and we've been together ever since.  This picture was taken at my brother's wedding which was one month before our own wedding. (I was a bridesmaid at my brother's wedding which explains the quirky little hat I'm wearing.)

So I'm 52 years old now and have been married for 26 of those years.  I've been married now the same length of time I was single!  I'm very lucky to have him, and he's a saint for putting up with my craziness all these years.

Oh! I thought you were going to show a photo of your wedding instead? :p :p

Sometimes I also like to take a look at my childhood photos. Obviously I often think of how innocent I used to look ahahaha!

Congratulations! :)

BTW, why don't you use the new comment system for blogspot users? It is useful to help you reply to each comment. You can google it to find out how to enable it.

Let me know if you can't. I can help. Because I just enabled mine. :) It is a little tricky for a custom template user

Happy Anniversary!! I love that photo! :)

Daisy said...

Thanks, all, for the good wishes and kind words. :-)

Rad, I'll look into it and see if I want to do that or not. I hesitate to change too much about my blog because every time I try something new, it seems like it is messed up for days!

So are you saying you're not so innocent anymore? haha! ;)

Daisy
How cute you two are!
It's probably that 'craziness' that's kept your marraige from becoming hum-drum! So celebrate it.
Congrats on your anniversary and I wish you many more, my friend!

Kimberly, Sandy, and Betsy, thank you all. Betsy, we did go out for a very nice dinner tonight, and he surprised me with a lovely bouquet of flowers, as well. :-)

He's the lucky one, Daisy! I love the photo, and wish you both the best for another 26 wonderful years, and then 26 more after that!

Daisy said...

Hey Rad, I did look at the comment box on your blog. Looks like a good idea. I might give that a try soon. :) Thanks!

Thank you, Diana! :D I don't know if we'll make it quite that far, but we are off to a good start.

Lynne said...

Congratulations! How wonderful to have been together all that time.
Those dammit dolls were interesting, and such a variety.
I like the fact that your director is making a proper space for you all to exercise. Let us know how it goes.
Been great catching up with you Daisy.

Ryan said...

You guys make a lovely couple, here's to the next 26 years Daisy

Daisy said...

Hi Lynne! The exercise room is almost ready for us. It was being painted this past week. We have still been exercising, and it is going well. :-)

Thank you, Ryan. :-)

Cassie said...

I LOVE this picture!! You two are SO sweet!!!! Happy (belated) Meeting Day to you. I feel so guilty I no longer remember exactly when Patrick & I met. I used to remember all that stuff. I do remember that the first time we kissed was July 23rd,1987!! (I wrote it down!! he he.) It was many years after we met, and 4 months after we started seeing each other.
Have a good week dear lady.

Daisy said...

Thank you, Cassie! I hope you have a wonderful week too. :-)
