Once upon a time, 33 years ago, two geeky kids got married. They bought a house and spent much of their time painting a scrubbing to make the house a home. They had children and enjoyed all the things that raising a family can bring.

Here they are 33 years later and are contemplating what to do in a few years that would be special to celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary.

They are talking about a cruise to Alaska or a nice grandfather clock for their home. Perhaps a gift of a beautiful set of pearls would be appropriate to mark the event.

No matter what they choose they know that the years have gone fast and they have been blessed.
