Twenty years.
Just saying it makes me feel old.
So does realizing that I've been married for half of my life.
But I wouldn't trade one of those 7,300 days for anything. Not all of them have been good or easy or fun-filled or joyous, but they've been shared with the one I love the most in this world and that is a blessing I really don't know how to put into words.
So...wanna know how we're going to spend this milestone day?
John is working. I'm teaching VBS all morning, hosting a playdate this afternoon, and then we're going out for dinner out tonight with the kids! My request was that we take the kids with us. We sufficiently celebrated our anniversary last month in California, and so we want them to be a part of this 7,300th day. Because they're three of the best gifts we've ever been given.
So...happy 20th anniversary, John. I love you so very much!

Happy Anniversary (again). 20 years sounds like a long time. Then you look at couples married 40 and think that's 14,600 days together! I hope your dinner out tonight with your three "gifts" is lots of fun. LOVE the picture of your anniversary trip.

IT seems weird to have friend who have ben married for 20 years! But you are one of several who have celebrated 20 years this year!
It kind of feels like that time I was talking about somebody being "older, like forty-one" when my husband said, "Uh, honey, I'm forty-TWO." And I realized I was thirty-eight...not as young as i once was.
time does fly when your having fun.
Happy Anniversary! We've been married 16 years and it's been the best 16 years of my life. Not the easiest but the best especially when you're married to your best friend. Wishing you and your best friend a great day!
And many more happy, happy days to come!
God bless the both of you.
I hope your day was full of life, Meredith. Happy anniversary!
happy anniversary!

Congratulations, but don't sell your self short. If you were married on June 30th 1990, technically speaking June 30th 1991 would have been 366 calendar days married. As 6/30/90 would be the first day you were married and 6/29/91 the 365th.
You also forgot to count leap days and you were married for all 5 of those. (2/29 92, 96 2000, 2004 & 2008)
So as of June 30th this year you has been married 7,306 days (20 365 day year, 5 leap days andJune 30th the first day of youur 21st year of marriage. Today July 1st is your 7,307th day of marriage, Congratulations and keep going!

Oh, we were looking at your family pic on the fridge today and one of my kids said, "Isn't she famous or something?" Hee hee. You'll find out why we were going through the pictures soon...
And I'm sorry I always forget to check the follow-up button. Here ya go.
Kecia...I am so not famous, but you have me intrigued. I'll wait patiently until you tell me about the pics. :-)
