Nebraska to Florida to be married. Ken has just gotten out of the Air Force, and came to Florida looking for jobs with his sister. It has been an up and down 47 years, but as my friend told me - "It's been a good ride".

She has to... he understand how to use Skype. :-) ha ha
Guess I will - his mom won't take him back. He was sure spoiled when I got him. His mom even ironed his underware!
Spoiled is right...did you follow suit????
No way - but do have him trained to do the "Cinderfella" chores - that is laundry, and the floors, and windows when it is needed. That was the agreement when he retired, and I said I would continue to work.

That is definitely something special to celebrate. Every marriage has its ups and downs. What matters is that you end each day together :) Happy Anniversary!!

47 Years is truly amazing. Congratulations! Have you ever just made a simple list of all the events of your lives together, not even including the detail? It might just blow you away! There have been times I could have drop-kicked my husband over the dump - and then there were times I would have flown to the moon to retrieve him. For our 20th anniversary, I made a list of all the reasons I loved him. I thought I'd try to think of 20 reasons and I came up with about 50! I gave him the list instead of a card. He keeps that list in his files. I keep thinking he's going to bring it out on one of those days when he thinks I'm ready to drop-kick him! May God bless you for another 47! Love and hugs, Jan

That is great - we usually tell people that we have only been together about 1/2 of those years - he traveled the World before he retired, and I was here with the girls. So, we had a lot of reunions. LOL

CONGRATULATIONS Beth & Ken, that is such a wonderful thing - to be with the man that your Daddy brought you to marry all those years ago - when the two of you promised each other and the promise stuck. Goody goody!

Happy anniversary and many happy years to come! I would not have believed you if there were only ups, might have become boring - although I can't say I love the bad times. We got married later in the same year.

Oh yes, you need the downs, to appreciate the ups.

Happy anniversary! We hit 50 last June. And as usual, my darling spared no expense to show me a great time. We went to Pizza Hut for the noon buffet!
How's that for old and done it all?

Dear Beth,
My Mum told me the first seven years are the hardest and then it's a roller coaster ride for the rest of your lives. We have been together since I was 15 and married for 39 years and still in love. Still a long way to catch up to you though. Congratulations to you and Ken.
Love and blessings Chris

Thank you - I was not quite as young as you - but I met him when I was 17, and we married I was 19. Young and in love - now older and still in love.
