We were married 20 years ago today at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. :) We're not nearly as romantic as many of you - we're having a barbeque with our children to celebrate. With lots of yummy cook-out food - so I need to get busy cooking. I think it's supposed to rain, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I did buy dh a platinum-faced watch and had our initials and today's date engraved on the back. (The "modern" gift is platinum for 20th, and that's as platinum as my budget can go!) I'll give it to him after dinner tonight. I'm sure he doesn't expect a gift at all, so it should be a surprise.

Then we'll probably listen to the hockey game on the radio after dinner as well, as my hubby and children are big fans and this is a big game for the Penguins.

Congratulations! It is funny how priorities change the longer you are married. It sounds like you are in for a wonderful evening.

And GO PENGUINS! What a great series. Hopefully your anniversary will bring them luck.

Congratulations and Happy Anniversary! What better way to spend it than surrounded by the fruit of your love!

Not that I really care, but being from the DC area, I am obligated to say "Go Caps!". I didn't even know who they were playing!
