My 40th wedding anniversary today
 
Forty years ago today (20th Jan) hubby and I tied the knot and I am still pleased to stay that there is no sign of fraying. We decided to stay home and celebrate locally - that was the best decision that we made due to all the extreme heat and fires that we are currently experiencing in our part of the world.

Friday morning we started off with a champagne breakfast at a restaurant close to the beach - good decision - as it was the hottest day on record in Sydney. Yesterday we had lunch at our favourite restaurant and today we are having a family get together for lunch which is being catered for.

I hope the hot weather breaks very soon. Our summer was very hot last year. Broke all records.

Well done and congratulations. My middle step son just got married the other day (the 18th)....I really hope he and his beautiful bride can be celebrating as you have 40 years down the track.

Sending best wishes to the happy couple earthwalker.

When you "walk down the isle" you never think about 40 years on. Now that I look back on the last 40 years I do wonder where they have gone.

Thank you for your wishes.

We will be 40 years in a couple of months, and I agree...the years flew...I'm very happy for you both...Stay well and try to stay cool...Texas is have a strange season...80 degree one day and 32 the next. There is an old saying, if you don't like the weather in Texas, hang on til tomorrow..it won't be the same.

Sounds wonderful! Congratulations!

Congrats to you & your DH. Quite a milestone. We are soon going to celebrate our 46th & I can't believe where the time has gone. It has flown by. We were young when we married & so many had said we were too young but after LOTS of work on both of our parts - it has worked this long. Sounds like you had a perfect couple of days planned.
Enjoy !!
