Twenty-Four

at by

24 years ago, we took this little carriage ride, as we had just been married. (My brother-in-law surprised us with this gift.)

Yay for us! I’m so proud of our marriage. As you know, it isn’t always easy. We’ve been through a lot together and all of it – good and bad – has made us stronger.

I was afraid of marriage and Don had been married before. So neither of us had a good track record. Somehow, it worked and keeps on working and I cannot imagine what my life would have been like if I had not met Don. I’m profoundly grateful for the presence of this incredible person in my life.

You’ve heard it all before in the years I’ve been writing this blog.

Life with Don is a glorious adventure. I never take it for granted.

Here’s to many more years of wedded bliss.

Stay safe.

Happy Wednesday.

  4. Oh, what a lovely picture! Happy 24th Anniversary, Claudia and Don. Wishing you both many more happy years to come! All the best !!!

  5. Happiest of Anniversaries, Claudia. Anything worth having is worth working for and at — and you two are proof. I send you all joy on this day and wishes for many more lovely years together.

  6. How wonderful! You are a beautiful couple. I think your respective creativity keeps you a strong and loving couple.

    Take Care,
    Kaye

  7. Love the picture. Happy 24th…Have a fantastic day being together…you are an amazing couple. Blessings and prayers.

  10. Congratulations! That’s a lovely ❤️milestone you and Don have reached together. The traditional 24th anniversary gift is an opal. My husband and I were surprised by a carriage ride after our wedding ceremony. It was a gift from my husband’s sister. They don’t allow horse-drawn carriages in Toronto any more. Enjoy your day. Make good memories. The girls will be celebrating, too. Hugs, Elaine

  13. Happy Anniversary Claudia and Don! I love this picture of the two of you and I wish you and Don many, many more happy years together.

    It’s sad that Nevada City no longer has those horse drawn carriage rides, but we have many fond memories of rides with our family in them, too!

  14. Happy Anniversary! Wishing you two many more years of togetherness….great pic of the two of you! ;)

  22. Congratulations and happy anniversary! As you say, it’s not easy, and there are some rough times now and then, but having and being a supportive spouse is an immeasurable gift.

  26. We share an anniversary! Congratulations on 24 years – we celebrated 47 years. Isn’t it wonderful to be married to kind, generous, thoughtful human beings! You are right, the good and bad times just make us stronger together! Happy first day of your 25th year!

  27. Happy Anniversary to you both! Such a charming photo of you two! So special. Quite right you are, both the good times and the rough patches help to bind. Both a giving and a forgiving heart. Or maybe, for me, forgetfulness. ;-)

  28. Oh, love this pic!
    Happy 24th wedding anniversary to you both :)
    Maybe you can sit on the porch together and watch the crazy storms which are predicted? Whatever you decide to do, maybe just being cozy inside your own nest, will be the right thing.
