Happy 25th Anniversary Mom and Dad

My, how time flies when you're having fun. And before you know it, you'll look up and find that you've been married for a quarter of a century.Well, at least my parents have. Congrats Mom and Dad. I told myself that if they ever divorced (which is quite unheard of in our household), I would never marry. And this is still true. So far, I'm still on the market. A blessing or a curse?? hmmm....only time will tell.



And now for 

    The Random List of Things That My Parents Have to Show for 25 long, but Swift Years of Holy Matrimony That They Would Not Have Had If They'd Not Met Each Other Sometime in the 80s:

1. Offspring
2. A fond appreciation of a meal compiled of Hot-Wings, left-over spaghetti and whatever else could be found in the fridge
3. A collection of VeggieTales, Little Rascals, Power Rangers, dvds AND VHS tapes
4. More clothes, stuffed animals, and plastic toys than even the Goodwill and Salvation Army wants to collect.
5. A fully assembled tent on the back porch
6. Junky "the college kid's home" Summers, 4 printers, 4-5 laptops, 2 futons, 4 sets of electronic hair appliances (bevel irons, blowdryers, etc), 3 extra sets of dishes

8. Kittens
9. Large, loud, lively dinners EVERY night
10. Apprx. 9,125 days of waking up to the same breath in the morning--and a few mornings of waking up to that of a child with a nightmare.
