What's 25 Years Get Ya?

When we got married on this day 25 years ago I am certain we didn't think that this would be the year that we would be "empty nesters". We are getting a taste of things to come since Garret is at the beach for Senior Week and there really aren't any kids around. We have been sitting at the new table we bought to seat 8, staring at each other, wondering "What now?" But it's all just fine. After this long together, "dead air" is OK. We've earned the right to just not talk and to glance over at each other and feel completely secure knowing we have each other and we are each other's best friend, and we have done good. We were alone for just three short years when we got married before we had the greatest blessing of all and started our family. I think we forget what it's like to just be us. We are excited to find out and to move on to the next chapter of our lives. We will rattle around in the house I'm sure, but are anxiously looking forward to our kids starting their families some day and being a part of their lives. We are deeply blessed.
