Anniversary Makeover



From this . . .


 
to this . . .
Although the bedroom chandelier is a recent dream come true
there is a much more significant dream come true that we celebrate today.
I chose the following picture because of what I noticed in the background.


On October 18, 1975
he, a handsome young groom in his dark brown suit and bow tie,
and I, a blushing young bride in my sheer long sleeved wedding dress,
promised our love for a lifetime.

We prayed the Lord's unfailing love rest upon us
even as we put our hope in Him.
Psalm 33: 22



Today we see how His unfailing love has surely been with us
and will continue to be . . . all the days of our lives.
Shania Twain's love song lyrics echo the melody in my heart.

Happy Anniversary to my H.
You'll always be the one.

Happy Anniversary! May you and yours be blessed today and in the years to come!

Happy Anniversary! I am sitting here smiling because a few months ago I noticed that we were purchasing the same dining room light fixture as you did, and that our old ones were very similar. Yesterday I was looking at our bedroom fixtures which are almost identical to yours, and thinking we should shop for some nice chandeliers to replace them, and you are one step ahead with yours!
Very pretty, by the way!

Oh, I will need to share with you the perfect shirt set to the rhythm of that famous song. Your dress looked similar to mine. And your H.has a hairdo similar to my J.at that time in life. More years for you to enjoy together.

Thanksgiving season bride : blessings and congratulations on making your entire marriage one long season if thanksgiving!

Love the light switch out. Read that the term "master" bedroom has sketchy roots and a suggested alternative name is the romance room.

Just a little something from Judy said...

Happy Anniversary to the two of you! A marriage that lasts the test of time as yours has, and "love" comes through every word and picture, is a most rare treasure in today's world.

The crystal chandelier is a beautiful way to add romance to your bedroom. They are my favorite way to add light and elegance to a home.

A belated Happy Anniversary to you both - a sweet picture! Roger wore a bow tie just like your dh :)

Kathy said...

I'm so late here with wishes. Your love and respect for each other is lived out in everyday life. Love our new light.
