Yes, it's hard to believe, but Art and I are not newlyweds anymore! On Monday we celebrated our 18th Wedding Anniversary, and 27 years since our "first date". How is that possible?? Am I even 27 years OLD???
So some things change, and some things remain the same....
My bad perm, thankfully, has not lasted as long as our marriage! Puffy sleeves (think Deb in "Napoleon Dynamite" - "I like your sleeves." "Thanks, I made them myself.") are also gone. Gina told me the other night, "Mom, I don't mean to hurt your feelings, but those bridesmaids dresses were ugly."
What?? Are you kidding me? You mean those teal, lacy topped, satin bottomed tea-length dresses, with the giant bow on the butt, were not flattering? And of course, everyone could wear them again to another formal occasion, right?
And it wasn't just the ladies' hair that was big! The groomsmen all had LOTS more hair than they do now, and their eyeglasses were all huge!
I'm including a photo here that we thought was just so romantic when we got our album after the wedding. Even though we are a little older, a little heavier, and a little grayer (well, not me, but my hairdresser won't ever tattle!), Art and I are still together forever....happily ever after!
