Our 22nd Anniversary.

I love this picture of us. It's from Em's wedding this year. :)
 Today is out 22nd Anniversary.  So tonight at about 4:00, we will be married 22 years.  We got married in the little church in Forest City. Ironically we will be there tonight because every year thay have a candelight Christmas Eve service. Just like the night we were married.  Everyone came for our wedding and stayed for the special service at 7:00.

The night we were married there was a huge ice storm. So after the ceremony, cake and punch.  We walked across the street.( We rented a little house across the street from the church.) I should say slid across the street, got a few things together and went to Jumers for the evening.  It was one of many times that I would learn that my husband, (and God), would get me where we were going safely even in bad weather.  :) 

We had met in June around the 2nd.  In October he asked me to marry him. I said yes of course, and wondered why it had taken him so long! :) In December we were married. Now 22 years, 9 kids, a one great son-in-law later, we have never been happier. 

I told Doug last night i was glad he asked me to marry him.  He told me he was glad I said yes. :) 
Awwwww. Its going to be a great day.  Hope your day is as wonderful with the one you love. :)
