44 and still going strong….

Seems like only yesterday that we drove from the Salt Lake Temple up to Shoshone for a small, but rather charming, reception.  To celebrate No. 44 tonight we had Hotpot in Beijing. But, going out to eat and then cooking it yourself is a different kind of celebration. You can see the steam coming up from both of our hotpots. Dad says one of our meats was squid, but I don’t think so…I mean, I hope, I hope, I hope it wasn’t.

    Happy 44th! We are so excited for you guys and are glad that you got to spend it together alone like you spent the first one so you could reflect on your life together (even if it was while eating squid). We look to you guys as a great example and hope to have a marriage as strong as yours. Here’s to another 44!

    Happy Anniversary! I can’t wait to see you guys soon. Looks like a fun anniversary dinner. A do-it-yourself kind of meal right?

    Yes, a do-it-yourselfer…and a good ending to a ”roughing it’ a little bit kind of year. Actually this is nothing compared to what we have seen here for others in a not-so-easy life.
    And, I might say that the best part of the meal (other than the company we are keeping) just might be the sauce for dipping the vegetables and meats we cooked.

    Happy Anniversary and congratulations on 44 years. We were thinking about you guys yesterday!

    Liz and I had a “do-it-yourselfer” at Melting Pot a while back. It was good, but I wasn’t totally sold on having to cook my own meal.
