Forty Two Years
This week end Carol and I celebrated our forty second wedding anniversary. It is hard to believe we have been married so long. She is still a delight and a mystery to me. Still lovely and gracious. I wake up every morning and thank the heavens above for granting me such a wonderful woman.

Ohhh how lovely Gary - time slips away so quickly and it's so nice you still feel the same way about 'your girl' - and she has a special fella, too. :)
Happy Anniversary Gary and Carol.

You are all so kind, I have been so busy this summer that I havn't got to spend much time here on the blog, but I am going to work harder at reading it at least every day. All of my children for the first time in years have moved to OKC and I have been so busy just visiting with them. What a crew, I would write more about them, but it would just be a proud father crowing and I don't know that I would be objective.

Congratulations on your anniversary. How wonderful that you have had so many joy-filled years together.
As for you writing about your family, I'm sure everyone would like to read more about them.

"What a crew, I would write more about them, but it would just be a proud father crowing and I don't know that I would be objective."
And Why would that be a problem? *grin*
I love to hear about your family - and pictures are great! :)
When you've time to catch your breath from travelling of course.

Not your job to be objective, Garry. Your job is to be proud, and to crow, and to enjoy every minute of it.
I'd like to see some pictures too, please.

Congratulations, Garry...Forty-two years is a long time for anything, but for a marriage in this day in Time, it is absolutely amazing. And please do take time to write about your family. I'd love to hear more about them myself.
