23 Years

23 years ago today Jon and I were married in Highbury Chapel in Hillcrest, South Africa. February is the middle of summer in South Africa. It rained as I arrived at the church (I have a wonderful photo somewhere of me with my dress hitched up, and my brother in law holding an umbrella over my head as I headed into Church) and when we came out there was glorious sunshine. We look so much younger, lol!! I guess that's because we were!

Our marriage has had ups and downs; we've had three wonderful children; moved country a few times and lived in numerous house (I think at the last count it was 15). I gained a step daughter and we have a grandson too. I can't help but wonder what the next 23 years will bring ;o)

Happy Anniversary Jon, I love you!
