A YEAR AGO (ALREADY), A TRIP TO ITALY , A TRIP OF A LIFETIME! 31 YEARS AGO, WE TOASTED OUR NEW LIFE TOGETHER AS HUSBAND AND WIFE, IN THIS PICTURE WE ARE CELEBRATING THE LIFE THAT WE'VE SHARED, THE INCREDIBLE CHILDREN THAT WE'VE RAISED AND THE NEW "CHILDREN" THAT THEY HAVE BROUGHT TO OUR FAMILY BY MARRIAGE. WE KNOW MORE ABOUT WHAT IT MEANS TO BE MARRIED THEN WE DID 31 YEARS AGO. WE KNOW THAT THE COMPROMISES, THE HURTS THAT CAN COME WITH MISUNDERSTANDINGS AND THE INCREDIBLE REWARDS THAT COME WITH THE PATIENCE OF STANDING BY THE COMMITMENT THAT WE EACH MADE 31 YEARS AGO. I CAN'T IMAGINE MY LIFE WITHOUT MY BEST "REASON" RICK! HE WON MY HEART YEARS AGO WITH HIS SLOW SMILE, AND BASEBALL HAT ON HIS HEAD. TODAY, HE HAS MY HEART AND MY RESPECT FOR HANGING IN THERE WITH ME! IT HASN'T ALWAYS BEEN EASY BUT IT'S ALWAYS BEEN MORE THEN I COULD HAVE DREAMED OF. THANK YOU FOR BEING MY BEST REASON FOR EVERYTHING! OH, AND OF COURSE, THANK YOU FOR THE WONDERFUL TRIP TO ITALY AND ALL THE ADVENTURES WE HAVE YET TO TAKE TOGETHER !!!
Happy anniversary Murtaughs!! :0)
