That's how old I was when I got married.
Boy, {I} was young!
Yesterday I marked the milestone of being married for 17 years and 23 days.

Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done. ☺ There, don't you feel better?
Please leave a comment! I enjoy hearing your thoughts, whether you agree with me or not. If we all agreed on everything how boring would that be? Worse than eating white chocolate, because it's fake. So be real, be yourself.
I do have to put comment moderation on at times, especially when a post seems to be "controversial" but it is my blog and I do have the right to filter the comments. I don't mind if you disagree but I do care about common courtesy and decency. No name calling or hostile comments will be allowed.
I hope you feel at home here!

Absolutely beautiful wedding picture. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteLove it. :) I was 19! We'll be married for 13 years on Monday.
ReplyDeleteDoes it blow your mind at all now when you think of your own daughter being 15? 17 is so so young! Congrats on finding happiness.
ReplyDeleteOur oldest turned sixteen the end of October. The three oldest are usually saying something like "If Bon Bon were you she'd be at college right now." Bon Bon just says "Thank goodness I'm not!" She definitely knows her own path and it doesn't follow mom's - at least in timing. :)
DeleteAwww....
ReplyDeleteSo very sweet...and you just look entirely virtuous in that wedding photo. I love it! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful for you both. You know, he's a really lucky guy! I hope he remembers that. I am amazed your mother was all for a wedding at just past 17 years old. I had to present an entire case before my parents to wed prior to my college graduation (by one measly semester)! And I was 22 (and six months).
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I was 19 when I got married :) You have a beautiful family!
ReplyDeleteAwww! So adorable! You beat me, and I was young, too. (2 weeks before I turned 18) I look back and think "What was I thinking?!" and then I look at my sweet husband, and all of our beautiful children, and I think "I wouldn't change a thing!" :-)
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!!!
Congratulations! I love how you look just as happy as you did on the day you got married, if not happier.
ReplyDeleteI get to celebrate this milestone next year and I'm already counting down. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! :D
ReplyDeleteYou were young, but Mr. FR sure looks pretty young too. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
PS. I was a little older than you at marriage (18.5). I find it absolutely AWESOME that so many young kids have the strength and courage to make such an important commitment!
ReplyDeletePPS. How old was he?
He was 23. He is 6 1/2 years older than I am.
DeleteI wasn't much older.... just 18. People just don't realize we've been married as long as we have because it took us 7 years to have our Danielle. The world tried to convince me I was too young to make such a decision about someone I only had met 3 months earlier (and I probably was), but thankfully it's a decision I'll not only never regret, but be eternally grateful that I had listened to my heart. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteWe kinda have one thing in common..I am 6 years older than my husband...but I married at 34. This May we celebrate 23 years. Happy anniversary!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, you have an awesome family. It doesn't just happen magically. It takes hard work and dedication to each other.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome milestone to reach. I look forward to the day when Dh and reach that. (I still have a way to go though because I was almost 22) Great photos as well.

ReplyDeleteCongrats!!!! You are younger than me by over a year and a half!?!?! I thought you looked young but I was hoping you just aged well! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! What a neat milestone! (I had no idea you and I are close to the same age!) You are such a beautiful couple, and your family is amazing. I wish we could be neighbors. :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Here's to many, many more for you two!
ReplyDeleteI just realized I will not be able to say that until I am 53.
ReplyDeleteWay to go!
You are amazing!
