24 years ago today


Michelle and I are celebrating our 24th anniversary. Yes, on Valentine's Day! We were introduced at a party 25 years ago on the same day. There have been several weddings @ our home, the most recent being our neice on Dec 19, 2009. We have 2 scratched sets of initials in our upstairs bedroom we believe to be from an upcoming bride with her new diamond from the 19th century. Our's was outdoors in the front Rose Garden on a beautiful winter day. We spent $1000 on the entire event. Take that Wedding Channel! Flowers were provided and picked by friends in the morning. Food, drinks, and desert were provided by friends and family. Michelle wore a wreath on Winter Honeysuckle in her hair and an antique dress she got in Little Five Points. 300 folks attended the afternoon event and festivities lasted into the evening. Folks still tell us it was one of their favorite weddings! Simply the best decision I ever made.
