ANOTHER ANNIVERSARY!!!

"im not a prince and I dont live in a castle. But I have one hundred
and sixty acres, a little log house, and dreams of my own. I need a
wife who will work by my side, through thick and thin, sweat and joy,
and be glad for good food and great company. Will you Fanny?"

"To marry is to form an equal partnership, tied together by the tenuous bonds of emotion and love. It is at once the most fragile of relationships and the strongest. Fragile because it requires exactly the right mix of freedom and inter-dependence, of caring and of sharing, of being together and of being alone. But it is strong because it involves the unseen forces of something we call love - mutual devotion, concern for the happiness of the other, and joy in each other's company. For there is no stronger force involving human relationships than this silent bond love.

Remember that this wedding day was only a symbol, a celebration, a public recognition of what already exists in the silent places of your hearts. It is your marriage and not something created by the state or the Church - it is yours to make real, yours to live. Nothing more can be said to make it anything more than what already exists in your hearts. Remember also that marriage is a shared relationship, not a matter of possession. It is a means of showing your commitment to one another, not a blind surrendering of personality. It is not an excuse to become limited in your outlook; it is an opportunity for mutual growth."

A good reminder to us all!! Thank you for finding one another, and for loving one another so well!! May you always find happiness in each others company!!
We LOve you guys and your 'little man' too!!!
