14 years and counting...

Yesterday (August 15th) was our 14th Anniversary. We were married on August 15, 1992 in Overland Park, Kansas where 450 people (250 was invited) jammed packed the Overland Park church of Christ auditorium to witness the wedding ceremony and the exchange of our vows, rings and love. There, we made a covenant to remain in oneness throughout the rest of our life!! It was a day we will never forget!

Though, we had so much going on yesterday, last week, I took her to a secret restaurant while my mother-in-law was in town. She was able to take care of our kids so I can steal her away from them for a few hours. She had no clue where we were going until we arrived at the entrance of the restaurant. We ate at P.F. Chang in Tyson Corner and enjoyed our moment together, children-less!

Looking forward to number 15, baby, and more!!

May God be with you and your family!

Kathy, Dennis & anonymous.. Thanks for your comments.

As for spiked hair, you've given me some thoughts. It would be like Brandon Scott Thomas from Zoe with a little goatie. :) But I'll remain as I am for now until I am 40! :)

Mark and Michelle,

CONGRATS ... on this longivity of the marriage God has made for you guys into one togetherness. Keep up as God will keep hold of you as the great example of trying efforts of "keeping the marriage" for the long time, not the short time. For us, me (Charles) and my darling wife (Marybeth) has been married for 19 years (next month September) ... that long !!! We have had all the good marbles and all the bad marbles being mixed with us inside and outside ... as God keep us in one togetherness as intact. Even Satan tried to get us apart, causing from those "worldly" influences and all stuffs being thrown at us. Similarily to Mark and Michelle. We survive as always we should go all way into God's Kingdom. Praise the Lord as we strive the good marbles with us, while we tried to avoid the bad marbles. PTL ... Trust us all as for any young couples -- for our advices for them (you all) -- to keep up togetherness in marriage as when getting older and older the strength will be stronger as always.

God Bless Us All,
C......
