25 Years ago today....

keithdog · 11-02-10, 07:24 AM

My wife and I made our vows to each other 25 years ago today.

I'm not really sure how or why she has put up with me all these years, but we are truly lucky enough to still be able to call each other our best friend. I don't know what I would do without her. She has added so much to my life in so many ways. And on top of that, she supports the things I truly enjoy, such as bass fishing and photography. She even lets the bait monkey run me wild from time to time.

Maybe because she enjoys eatting what I bring home. We've had our tough times as all couples do, but we have never been mean or spitefull to each other. We always respect each other and put the other first. And I can say without doubt, I'd do it all over again. Michelle is the one true gem in my life. Thankyou Honey for saying "I do" all those years ago.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes!!! John, we spent the day in Chicago and ended up at one of our favorite restrautns called Popolanos. It was a fantastic meal for sure to nearly end up a perfect evening,

, lol After 25 years of giving me everything she could give to me, I wanted to give her the best I could. Actually, we've been together 31 years as we we dated for 6 years before we got married. And I'd do it all again in a heart beat. Like you said before John. We are two lucky men, and it sounds like Old Hooker and Mike are right there with us!

Congrats Keith. It's never easy but when your best friends, it always works out.

96ecss · 11-04-10, 10:35 AM

Congratulations Keith!

I've been married almost 10 years now and I still don't know how I ended up with such a great woman. My father always said "there's nothing better in life than a good marriage"

Here's to 25 more years for you and the Mrs!

You got that right Lash! And 96, your dad was right on!!! Having been lucky to marry a great woman the first and only time around, I can't imagine my life without her.
