Our 28th Wedding Anniversary

It’s strange to think that Devin and I have been together for so long. 28 years is a pretty long time! When our anniversary rolls around, I don’t reflect on our relationship and the ups and downs. I always recall the day we got married. It was 1993. The hair was big. The wedding dresses were boofy and everyone had pretty much the same wedding colors – dusty pink and forest green. I never planned on getting married right after college, but I did. A big budget wedding was not in my reach. So, my wedding was on a very tight budget. With that tight budget came a lot of good memories.
