Tuesday Thoughts

I have decided to do something different on my blog. I am going to have "Tuesday Thoughts" each Tuesday of the week. I may post about quilty or non-quilty things. Who knows? Just remember I am a member of the Wacky quilting group so it may just be something really wacky that I post about.

Today, I will post about Love. What is love, you ask? Love is never having to say you are sorry. Haha -- now I've shown my age with this line from the old movie Love Story.

Tomorrow my hubby and I will celebrate our 37th wedding anniversary! We had only known each other about 6 weeks when we got married so I guess you can say it was "love at first site". (Gee how corny!) Now granted, these past 37 years have not been all rosy -- there were some rocky times, but I think that is healthy in a relationship -- makes you appreciate each other.

My hubby is my very best friend. He has been with me thru birth, death of my parents, my career, life disappointments, illness, and many more things. We have a blast together and love to have a good time! We both love the Lord so that makes our relationship even more special.


Here is a picture of us at our wedding back in 1971. Check out those sideburns on hubby -- LOL! How funny! I sewed back then too (but not quilting) and made my wedding gown and veil. The silver goblets were a gift from his brother. These goblets were both used at the weddings of our two boys and hopefully will be used in generations to come.

Happy Anniversary! How cool to keep using the goblets. That's a great family tradition.

Congratulations on your anniversary tomorrow. I think the difference with many marriages these days, is when they hit the rough times, they call it quits. Such a shame.

Hi, I just found you thru Quilting bloggers. I have not joined yet but was looking thru the TX listings.

I see we have three things in common - quilting, TX and my miniature schnauzer's name is Jackson too!!! We got him in Jackson, SC and decided on the way home that would be his name. He is 9 years old.

Congratulations on your wedding anniversary :) and love from my side of Texas! ~bonnie
