Pearl Anniversary

I'm still on a break from blogging, we haven't yet had my dad's funeral, but I couldn't let the day pass without mentioning our pearl anniversary.


Thirty years of marriage is quite an achievement these days with the high divorce rate, people choosing to marry later in life than they did years ago, and some people opting not to marry at all.

There have been many hard times during the last thirty years but our marriage has remained strong throughout, having each other is the thing which has helped us through. Of course, there have been many happy times too, so many memories stored away, and lots of laughs along the way.

We're not one for grand gestures but we shall celebrate in some small way today.

Here's to the next thirty!

  5. Congratulations on your anniversary. Yes, thirty years is good going these days. John and I have been married 22. I was married 10 years to my first husband and John was married 3 times before me. I'm so sorry to hear that you haven't been able to have your dad's funeral yet, it must be so hard to bare :( Enjoy your day and many more happy years to you both. Love, Jane x
