20 YEARS!!

I just had to stop in for a real fast celebratory post.


Today (yes, April Fools Day) is my parents 20th ANNIVERSARY!!!
My parents have been married for 20 years.
Say it with me TWENTY YEARS!
No, I am not younger than 20. haha! My dad adopted me when I was younger.
He has been in my life since I was 5.  He IS my dad.  I don't remember him as anyone other than my dad. :)  And oh do I love him.  And oh do I love my mom!

Mom.  Dad.  Thanks for being such a great marital example!  Mike and I strive to have a marriage as strong and fun as yours every day!!!  Here's to TWENTY more!  :)

Enjoy Savannah!

Love you!!

Friends... do me a big favor.  Leave a comment here for my parents.  They read my blog all the time.  Let's warm their hearts.  :)  Thanks!

xo.

CONGRATULATIONS! 20 years!

It is so refreshing to hear of couples, like you two, who are celebrating these "milestone" anniversaries... proves that God really does have that 'someone special' for us - what a beautiful gift He gives through the blessing of marriage. I look forward to someday being able to celebrate my own 20th anniversary :)

Blessings!

(my parents celebrated 22 years last month... so, let's hear it for great marriages! *whoop*whoop*!) ;)

Woohooo for 20 YEARS!!

My sweetheart and I aren't married yet, but when we get married, I want to have the best marriage possible. Trust me, I have no illusions of perfection, but I love hearing stories of couples who have been married for a long time - so inspiring! :D

Congrats, Shey's mom + dad!

Congratulations to your Mom & Dad!

20 IS something to be proud of- especially today when I even see marriages struggle to make it to 1.

I am often amazed and thankful to God for our families, both my parents and my in-laws are celebrating "29" within this year!

Congratulations! I have a soft place in my heart for Daddy's that choose to be Daddy's. I have one that raised me since I was 2, so even though I don't know you, I had to comment! Hope you have a great anniversary!

Hi,

Congratulations to your parents I hope that they have continued happiness for another 20 years!

I managed 21years until he worked abroad and met 'another' special someone and divorced and he married her... They have now been married 20 years.

Me ? The thought of someone else frightened the devil out of me but 2 years later I met my 'now and forever' husband and we have been very much together now for nearly 20 years...

You never know what is ahead of you - What will be will be!

Hugs from Scotland xx.
