To Infinity and Beyond!

Matt and I celebrated our eighth wedding anniversary last week.  We are looking forward to all the years ahead of us. The eighth anniversary gift is suppose to be brass which is a hard one to shop for. Online I found suggestions for jewelry with the infinity symbol which is essentially an 8 sideways. Lucky for Matt I didn't feel the need for any infinity jewelry but I did like the symbol of infinity. Some days it does feel like we've been married forever, Then other days I can hardly believe it wasn't yesterday that we got married. For me time really does fly by.

We are so lucky to be able to witness many great marriages among our friends and families but I think two of the strongest examples are from both of our parents. We are truly blessed to have both sets of parents still happily married after all these years.

My parents just celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary and are loving being 'retired' (read having multiple part time jobs each) together over in Chelan. Here they are September 19th, 1970.

Here's to many more happy years together for everyone!
