Happy Anniversary To My Hubby

Bernie, it was not this cold 36 years ago on March 11th when you carried me over the threshold[which I must add, that if you tried THAT again, you would surely break your back!]
It is a cold freezing night and I am making this anniversary post for you and there you are curled up with the cat keeping you warm, and the pair of you sawing logs and snoring! How romantic is THAT!!
This picture was taken yesterday..The house is just surrounded with icicles!
Amazing grace man, Ron was supposed to be sending us some warm weather from Georgia but I surely believe that the snow queen from Idaho , Mrs. Mac sent us a whole pile of snow instead!
NOT nice!!


Mr. and Mrs Bernard Shirkie...Mar 11, 1972


Dad Golden looks more afraid than I do!
Dad and Mom Golden with their six daughters,, Betty, Gail [my Hortense], Sandra, me, Dad Golden, Mom Golden, Gracey and son David......Gary and Teddy were already gone to the hall.

Karen Golden, Bernie, Terry, Gary Golden, Betty Golden, Teddy Golden. Marilyn Walker, Norm and Susan Dube.


My bridesmaids..

My big sister Betty and my baby sister Karen

O dear what have I done? Does this mean I have to put up with Bernie's jokes the rest of my life?

Betty Jane Golden..My sister, my best friend and my maid of honour

Brother, look at THIS ugly duckling!

Was it any wonder to any of you that I was the one to pop the question!
Bernie was just too scared to say no!
This is the honeymoon we took TEN years later..We boarded the motorcycle and headed out west, to Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and then to the British Columbia Mountains.
Well I guess it hasn't been a bad trip with you Bernie.
Tomorrow morning we will head out to your favourite restaurant, MacDonald's and get you some burnt muffins to celebrate our 36 years! What say?
...Love you....love Terry
PS..The cat can't come!

Hi Terry

I have never even seen all of those wedding pictures, just a few of them. They are really nice.
Tell that Beanhead to stop sleeping so much.
Love Grace

Snow Queen reporting in to wish you and Bernie a very happy (if somewhat belated) anniversary wish. We still have snow ... just in my area ... no icicles ... but this evening it's snowing a bit (again) ... I promise not to send it up your way ... my gardening gloves are sitting idly by just waiting to be used. Seed packets are gathering dust and the dawg has driveway fever (only place she can roam still) Here's hoping for many more years of married bliss. ...and sunshiny skies too.

hugs & love from Idaho

Oh, NO! I missed your anniversary!! I knew it was in March, and I have a card and letter and all waiting to be mailed, but alas! I feel awful! Please do accept my sincere apologies, and

Happy Anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Shirkie!

Why didn't you let us know at Pals??!

Love and Prayers,

LPP and LMG

Happy (late) Anniversay Guys! Do like we do around here, celebrate for a whole month or a couple of weeks.
No excuse, but I don't get read around like I should or I would have known.
I did get your other message, thanks for the heads up!
Again, sorry I'm late. Best wishes for 36 more!
