I know my writing is bad so stick with me please. So 40yrs ago today I married my high school sweetheart her and her sister and i went to lake Tahoe for the weekend I was leaving for coast guard bootcamp the next week. After playing in the snow all day we were wet and cold and I asked her let's get married right now she agreed and we got married at the chapel of the bells in Tahoe. We got home didn't tell anyone and I went off to bootcamp. When I got home from bootcamp our adventures together began and off to cape disappointment for us. It was really hard on us but we made it work. Then we got stationed in SD and by now we had our daughter. I got out of the CG and started driving a truck and Mrs beerrun started working in the office at the same company things were great and here comes a baby boy.we as as family have had great times together and bad times but she has always been the voice of reason and always got us back on the straight. She is the glue to this family. I can't sleep unless I'm touching her at night no matter how hot she is she still let's me be as close to her as can. I truly love her more then anything. Happy anniversary Debra let's do 40 more sweetheart

Congratulations!

Thanks for sharing.

These are my favorite threads and stories that get posted.

My wife came from a wrecked home. My daughter in laws both come from wrecked homes, my son in law comes from a wrecked home.

Wow, first there is nothing wrong with your writing and second just a wonderful story. When I was young I never knew of a wrecked home, never even knew what divorced even meant, my how times have changed.
Oh and great picture by the way.

I was at Ballast Point, EPO on the Point Stuart '86-'87, got out and went Reserve, bounced around between San Diego Group Engineering and 32nd Street Naval Station (MAT) until I retired in 2002.

(Happy Anniversary, Chris)
