We are gathered here today … to read this blog post ...

Today marks a very special event.

Today my marriage becomes an adult.

Eighteen years old … legally able to consume alcohol ... and vote … and get married.

I vote that Hubby spoils me silly … whilst I consume alcohol… and reminisce about getting married.  It's the least he can do … after all I've been putting up with him for a really long time now.

But I don't like my chances … if the lack of response to my earlier text message is anything to go by.


So in the absence of any spoiling … and any alcohol … because it's pouring rain outside which means I have to do a school pick up run … I bring you some reminiscing.

Still single … time left to make a bolt for it

Bridesmaids holding tight … and keeping me cornered … to avoid anyone making a bolt for it

Signing my life away … with an "Oh s*@t" expression on my face … "Just keep moving your hand … like this" says the newly christened Hubby

Deed done … for better or for worse

Just stand around casually … like we do this all the time

What the?  I need a drink!

OK … I'll dance with you … as long as you promise to spoil me after I've been putting up with you for eighteen years.
Happy Anniversary Hubby … aren't you SOOOO GLAD you met me!!
