Happy Anniversary to Us
There was no limo at our wedding. No champagne, no Vera Wang.
We did not have a string quartet or a Hawaiian honeymoon.
There were wagers, we’re pretty sure.
But here we are, 18 years deep, pretty smug and happy, I must admit, to prove ya’ll wrong and collect those bets.
On August, 19, 1989 we were married (frightened; unemployed; teenagers!) and while we didn’t have much, we had love, family and friends.
And that, dear readers, has made all the difference. Happy anniversary to us, and to you, too for standing by and cheering us on through the first 18 years.

Happy, happy, happy to you both!
I personally things go better if you wed without the Vera Wang, the string quartet, and the other frou frou stuff. Doing it on a smaller budget almost guarantees that you focus on the important thing — your relationship — and not focus so much on just that reception.

Next time I’m in town, whenever that is, we should do some lovey dovey black and white anniversary pictures.
