| Our wedding day! |
 | |||
| Las Vegas, one of our fave vacation spots! |
When it comes to anniversary gift buying, I read that “groceries” is the gift for a 44th wedding anniversary. That doesn’t sound real exciting to me and Bill doesn’t even like to go grocery shopping so we won’t be giving each other groceries today. Instead, Bill is taking me out to one of our favorite restaurants for a delicious dinner this evening. There won’t be any cooking or recipes here today!
It has been an incredible 44 years and I am astonished with how fast these years have flown by. Bill is a kind and caring man ~ the love of my life. It was his great sense of humor that attracted me 46 years ago and there’s still no one who can make me laugh the way he does.
We have been blessed with 2 incredible sons, Bill, Jr. and Matt; Matt’s wonderful pretty wife, Kathy and their darling son, Matthew: our amazing grandson. And, by the way ~ Bill has already given me the best gift ever ~ his love!

Groceries is what you are supposed to receive for 44 years???? What a great milestone and I wish you much happiness for the next 44 years. It is people like you who give us a great example of how it can be. Joni
Pam and Bill: Happy anniversary! I think "groceries" should be changed to "dinner out at a favorite restaurant"!! Enjoy!
