HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RANDY

ROADS
Every road we’ve walked,
every path we’ve chosen,
has molded us into the couple that we are.
Through laughter, heartache, tears and joy,
though sometimes taking different paths,
we’ve always walked the road together,
arm in arm, side by side.
Our lives together, intertwined,
would be meaningless if on our own.
The memories we have,
the years together,
the life we’ve shared,
would be shattered if we parted.
I want to keep walking that road of life with you,
always together,
creating more memories,
laughing, happy,
side by side,
no longer taking different paths,
but always walking
that road of life together.
Karen Wrighthouse

Randy,

The thirty years I have spent with you have been the most amazing, wonderful years of my life. I couldn't ask for a sweeter or more loving man to spend my life with. I know we've had our share of hard times over the years, but those times are gone, the past, and I know that the next fifty years are going to be as wonderful, exciting and sweet, or even better than where we are now.
Thank you for putting up with me during those hard times, for staying with me, for loving me and taking care of me.
I love you and am so thankful that God allowed us to meet, fall in love, marry, and spend our lives together, forever.
Happy Anniversary.
Love,

Karen

SEVEN AGES OF THE MARRIED COLD
1st year--The husband says, "Oh, sweetie pie, I'm really worried about those nasty sniffles you have! There's no telling what that could turn into with all the strep that's been going around. I'm going to take you right down to the hospital and have you admitted for a couple days of rest. I know the food is lousy there, so I'm going to bring you some takeout from Tosini's. I've already arranged it with the head nurse."

2nd year--"Listen, honey, I don't like the sound of that cough. I called the doc and he's going to stop by here and take a look at you. Why don't you just go on to bed and get the rest you need?"

3rd year--"Maybe you better go lie down, darling. When you feel lousy you need the rest. I'll bring you something--do we have any canned soup around here?"

4th year--"No sense wearing yourself out when you're under the weather. When you finish those dishes and the kids' baths and get them to bed, you ought to go to bed yourself!"

5th year--"Why don't you take a couple aspirin?"

6th year--"You oughta go gargle or something, instead of sitting around barking like a dog!"

7th year--"For Pete's sake, stop sneezing. Are you trying to give me pneumonia? You'd better pick up some tissues while you're at the store."
