This is our big 4-0 today. Going to have our wedding vows renewed at church and then dinner this evening follow by ... well ... surely we'll think of something. :D
It amazes me she can be so great as to put up with me all these years. I'm a lucky man, indeed.

Congratulations Dicksbro! And to your lady wife, too! :)
I think 40 years with the same person is a REAL achievement, especially in these times...... something more of us could aspire to... (me included!! ;) )

Congratulations DB...
You are indeed a lucky man.. to not only have found your soulmate but to have kept her close in your heart for 40 years... I am certain that your union is an inspiration to many around you... no doubt that during the last 40 years both of you have experienced your ups and down, not just together but individually.. and to have made it thru them together has only made it possible to get where you are today.
I wish you both much continued happiness........ many hugs

Congratulations, Dicksbro! This is great news! I still say you were married when you were five - you seem so youthful! I am thinking love keeps you young!

We had a wonderful day. Thanks to all of you. Went to church and had our wedding vows renewed there. Gave my wife a new set of rings as the originals had become too small and a setting was missing from one. So ... she got new ones a little bigger than the original.
Then, our oldest daughter and her husband took us to lunch. Yesterday evening, we went to Peoria and had dinner with some 30 or 40 other couples. Had a great time.
It was a wonderful day and we both thank all of you for your good wishes. Wish you could have all been here.
Oh yeah ... Wednesday we're going to go over and spend time with our daughter and son-in-law in Indianapolis and then head down to Cincinnati to visit with our other daughter and son-in-law. Should be lots of fun and kind of extends our celebration for a few days. :D

Belated Congratulations to you and your lovely wife, dicksbro!!
I didn't realize our wedding anniversaries were so close....,......
Today is 31 yrs. for my hubby and me. We're waiting until sometime next month to do something special to celebrate. Finances just won't allow for an evening out right now. But we've spent the day together, and just being together is the main thing. And given the choice, I'd marry him all over again.
As much as I complain, I REALLY do love him!

Congrats to you also, SS! Being so close together on dates ... doesn't that just go to prove that ol' adage about "great minds?" :D
Seriously, I sure hope you have a wonderful day together.
Hugs from the two of us to the two of you! :)
(BTW ... tried to PM you but it said your mailbox was full :()

Thank you so much for the kind wishes, dicksbro.........and yes, I agree about "great minds, etc."
And thanks, too, for the 'heads up' on my PM box. I've done some housekeeping and emptied it somewhat. :multi:
