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!

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*!) ;)

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

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.
