You both look wonderful!
And I do think we are really blessed to have wonderful steady men we can depend on! God has blessed you, dear friend!I like that you looked at what the future might hold and gave a glance to what has transpired.
Thanks for sharing...

Happy anniversary!
Happy anniversary to you both!! How nice to get away and reminisce and look ahead...and Williamsburg is certainly a lovely place to go.
Love your wedding photo! Your dress is so pretty, the tux is so '70's. :) (My husband wore a similar tux when he was an usher in his cousin's wedding in 1977.)
The blessing of the Lord on a marriage is marvelous grace!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! Glad you had a nice celebration. You are the same as us. Married in 1975! Your hubby's tuxedo was very similar to my hubbys too. They were the height of fashion, haha. May the Lord bless you with many more!
Happy Anniversary! Love the commitment that you've both made to one another! God is good. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
How wonderful! Thirty-nine years! Congratulations to you both!
Happy Anniversary, we are just a couple of years ahead. My sister's groom wore s very similar tux. Seems lots of people were wearing the blue then!
Happy Anniversary! You two look great!
I had to chuckle over the powder blue tux
(dashing really! ) and am grateful that the pink wedding gowns of the 50s didn't coincide with the powder blue tuxes of twenty years later.
Oh, Williamsburg, love it!! I have been there so many times as all my Mom's family lived in that area and a couple still do.
We just celebrated our 43rd last Friday. Not sure where the years have gone.
Happy weekend!!!
