MY BELOVED AND ISeptember 8, 1978
Somehow our marriage has stood the test of time. For this I am eternally grateful. Today I celebrate 31 years of wedding bliss with My Beloved. How blest I've been.
A PEEK AT MY KEEPSAKE BOOKI was not quite 20 years old when I married my Mr. AGPMan. Nowhere near wise enough to make such an important decision for my entire life...
I was stubborn.
Still am.
I was stubborn.
Still am.
OUR SWEET ENGAGEMENT No one, not even my precious Father, could convince me to wait a couple of years...
MY BRIDAL SHOWERI truly had no clue what I was doing...I only remember wanting to spend the rest of my life with my sweetheart.
Nothing has changed.
He's still my Number One.
LIFELONG VOWS
OUR WEDDING PROGRAM

Rebecca,
It was so heart warming to see these photos of you and your husband. It actually brought tears to my eyes. You both have been so blessed to have found each other and held on to each other for this many years. God had really blessed you and I know that you already know this. You can see the love that you have for one another in each of your faces. Happy Anniversary and many, many more!
Hugs,
Lee Laurie
I'm ahead of ya by 17 years but hubby went to our "Healthy Families of Nampa" today, on which he is a board member, and heard a talk by a marriage counselor that had good advice. Look not for a mate who has common interests; look for a mate who has common values. He said he's a marriage counselor and a divorce stopper or something to that effect. Good advice. Work out our problems and fool that old' evil one!
Jack took me to the wilds of Idaho for 4 days but I survived and am home now.....CLEANING!!!

When the Lord brings two people together, words cannot express the joy and blessings that union brings! I feel the same way about my precious husband.
Happy Anniversary to you both and may God continue to bless your lives as you live for Him.
Love,
Lisa
Oh my I have tears in my eyes. How sweet a tribute especially the "Love bites" section. He takes care of you so well!!!
You both look great today too!!! Marriage has been good to you both!!
I have you beat by just less than 2 years :-) 9/25/76 Got me a good one too!! We just don't look the same. LOL!!!!
Happy Anniversary - it just gets better and better, don't you think?
I hope you guys have the best day.
Marsha
God bless the both of you and your beautiful family.

Oh, Rebecca, what a beautiful love and life you and your man have shared for all these year! Congratulations and praise for your committment to each other and to your family, to give them security and confidence that mom and dad are in this for life. You are a beautiful couple, inside and out...God bless you, today and always! Mary
p.s. we will be celebrating 39 years in November!
Hi Rebecca, Congratulations on your 31 years of marriage. You made a beautiful bride and your husband I have to say looks so different from what he look like then to now. You both look fantastic! I'm going to post about my anniversary in the next few days. September Wedding I think was a good time to get married.
Hugs-
Happy Anniversary...I love all of your keepsakes...a true treasure!
Abby:)
Becky and Steve--
The years pass quickly and you have already spent a lifetime together. Just think -- only 19 more to go and you will hit that "GOLDEN 50." Beautiful Post!
CONGRATULATIONS!
Love you Forever.

Rebecca, happy anniversary dear one. I hope you and your sweet husband have many more happy and wonderful years together.
I had to smile at your hubby's sideburns....so adorable. We were married in 1979 and Ron had those too. I still think they are cute...even today.
Blessing to you both,
Barb
~~Rebecca~~
I'm loving this post today...by now you have enjoyed your anniversary day and I'm sure it was wonderful!! The union you two share together is surely to continue to be blessed by your devotion to God and your undying love for each other. May you have many more happy years together...
Makes me pause and feel blessed for my own years of marriage.
God is wonderful...!!! Love and hugs to you both...Mary H.
What a beautiful couple and you both look so happy, both then and now. Happy Anniversary and may you have many more! Congratulations!

Hi Rebecca, Congrats and Happy Anniversary to you and your beloved Steve. I love seeing the wedding pics from so long ago. What a beautiful couple you were and are now. Your love is special and a blessing to all.
Enjoy your special day and May God Bless you with many more wonderful years together.
We also celebrated last month (our 36th) and I too shared these long ago pics. Seems like yesterday doesn't it? We remade our wedding vows at 30 years and it was so special. Nearly as exciting as the first because DH planned it all and surprised me.
Have a great and blessed week sweet friend.
Love, Celestina Marie
Congrats on your Wedding anniversary! I see the similarities with my 1975 wedding! We had similar veils! Enjoyed sharing your memory albums. Again...a Happy Congratulations!
What a sweet tribute to marriage and your journey. Love the then and now photos. You two have aged to perfection, a lovely lady and her handsome guy. Congratulations!
Congratulations on a most wonderful life. The Lord has certainly blessed you both. It is always a blessing to hear of a stayed marriage today. I hope you have a wonderful day
Blessings
Rebecca
May the Lord bless you with many many more years of happiness
Happy aniversary for you both!

Hi Dear Rebecca! Oh what a sweet posst and happy anniversary to you and your hubby! You two are just little dolls! Just babies! :) You're both beautiful now! I know how you feel and could be saying the same words about my Mr. Precious!
Thank you for sharing with me in my joyness! I'm so excited!
Be a sweetie,

Congratulations, Rebecca on your 31st Wedding Anniversary! This post fills my heart with happiness for you and your dear husband. You are beautiful in your love for one another! (I loved seeing your scrapbook/album. What a wonderful tribute you created! Thank you so much for sharing!)
Hi Baber, I loved the post and all the comments. I can't believe it has been a year since our big party at the Skirvin the kids threw for us. Renewing our vows was so much fun. Who is that skinny guy in the picture with you? :-) Too bad the readers cannot pull back fro that picture of us leaving in the car so they could see the beautiful "baby blue" Vega hatchback we were leaving in. LOL! Ah, those were the days. Sure glad my dad was a mechanic or I would have never been able to keep her running for 9 years! :-).
I had a wonderful day yesterday going to the antique shops and running around. I love you so much!
Love Forever,
me
Happy Anniversary, Rebecca! to you and your husband. Thanks! for visiting my blog. I was going to leave a comment here earlier but, got called away. You have a beautiful blog and I'll be back again and again.
Hi Rebecca,
Happy anniversary, and congrats on 31 yrs. We just celebrated our 30th! What a lovely couple you were then, and even more beautiful now! Wishing you many more happy yrs with your beloved.
Debbie
