congratulations, Karla and hubby!
Yup, I'd say those years are not all the same, but anything worth having is worth working for and taking care of.
Sounds like you and hubby have a good handle on it.
Me and mine, 32 married, 34 together. We have a handle on it too,...but sometimes I am still tempted to use that handle on him! :lol:

It will be 7 years for us in March. It amazes me how fast time flies! We were friends for 5 years, dated for about 8 months and were engaged a year before the actual wedding. My mom always said tha tit didn't surprise her that I married DH because I was always talking about the time I spent with him, even when I was dating another guy! He was my best friend even then!

We celebrated 28 years Aug 2009 ... we were high school sweethearts, married after university (9 years dating, 28 years married) ... he's my best friend.
His parents celebrated 50 years just before his dad passed on 2 years ago, my parents celebrated their 54th last month! My grandparents 60 years, great-grandparents were together 69 years. Lots of wonderful family moments all my life :)
