Our 17th Year
January 13, 2006
Well, another week has passed and we are looking forward to a weekend of celebration. Tomorrow is our 17th anniversary and Elizabeth and I are going to the Seven Gables while Ben has a couple days with Mama and Papa. As I think about the last 17 years so much has happened, but it feels like it was just yesterday. While Elizabeth is as beautiful as the day we were married, I am not sure who that thin guy with hair is standing next to her in the wedding photo.
Even though time has not been good to my hair or waistline, I feel like I am the luckiest man on earth. Elizabeth is a wonderful, understanding and caring soul-mate and Ben continues to make me proud each and every day. So as we celebrate our 17 years together, I am reminded to take time to give thanks to God for all that He has given, for Elizabeth and Ben and for His gift of grace and love through Jesus Christ.
Nice picture. Where are they being held captive? Is that the same Tony I know and love ?

Oh, you were a goofy looking one. Which is fine. By the by, Garden State was a great movie, and even better soundtrack. Good choice. Check out Mike Doughty’s Haughty Melodic or Great Big Sea’s Something Beautiful. I think you’ll like them
