The first date. By the end of the evening, we felt like we knew each other forever. We balked a bit, as neither of us really believed in 'love at first sight', but after a few weeks, we made it exclusive.
Feel like two halves of the same person, on the same page with most everything.
We met in '78, married in '80, so 46 years together, 44th anniversary this October.

Congratulations, and happy early anniversary.
Same to you, fyfy!
Fall's our favorite time of year and we got married at peak foliage. Rained all week, but on Friday, the sun came out and our pictures are just beautiful!
Just remember, committed (especially with marriage vows), relationships take work, it's not all sunshine and roses.
We've weathered things that would have torn most couples apart. 'What doesn't kill you makes you stronger'.
Our union was made stronger by working things out, as opposed to giving up and walking away.
I wish you the best of luck. A solid marriage is one of the best things in life, along with raising kids in a loving family.
I feel so blessed, may you be, as well!
