10 year anniversary

Dez · #1 08-21-2010, 04:41 AM

My wife and I just celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary yesterday. I somehow managed to convince my wife after our lovely dinner at the Melting Pot restaurant to go to the LFS (Marine Aquaria) and then to the Delta Hotel to see the 10 foot aquarium that was installed in the recent months. I love my wife....anybody else able to get away with stuff like that?

I could add a 16inch blonde naso and my wife wouldnt notice. Plus she waits in the car when we go to the LFS.

My whole family was in the car for nearly an hour while I was at Dez's place. I think that qualifies her for superstar status.

For the record the kids had fallen asleep and she didn't want to wake them before our trek back to Calgary.

For our honeymoon my wife learned how to bale hay. No wonder she hates me, but still likes to bale.

I don't know how many times I have done this... outside fish people's houses.. and outside J&L aquatics.. I love that my kids fall asleep in the car.. AND my wife loves to read... 14 years so far for us...

And you still never bought her Lionfish for her

I got all you guys beat!
I've got three tanks; have covered her with return-line goop (twice); flooded the family room carpet on three separate occasions and bought her live rock for our anniversary. And she takes it all in stride. In fact she even shows an interest in the hobby, (I caught her once stripped to the waist hanging over the tank rescuing an upside down snail. She often goes with me to the LFS, and never complains about how much money I spend............ of course I had to buy her a new car and take her on an exotic vacation every year for the rest of my life, but I figure that's cheap enough.
Yes, I do think I'll keep her! (if she'll keep me that is )

That's awesome, my wife and I are celebrating 9 years in a couple of weeks. She's actually the one I have to watch when we go to the stores... as soon as she's out of sight I hear from around a corner "OOOH, this is pretty how much is this" Usually followed by the sound of coral dropping into a plastic bag.

As soon as it's maintenance time though it becomes "my" tank

My wife can spend like no tomorrow when we go on a store tour.
