Let's aim for 2074!!

80yearsmarried
Although this is not about our kids I thought it was okay to add to the blog. This English couple has been married 80 years. They were married in 1925 and received a congratulations from Queen Elizabeth (who was born in 1926!). Here is a quote from Times Online:
The Queen today sent a card with her best wishes to a world record-breaking couple who are celebrating their 80th wedding anniversary. She described the marriage of Percy Arrowsmith, 105, and his 100-year-old wife Florence as a "splendid achievement" and sent them "warm congratulations". timesonline.co.uk
In 1994 when we were married Janice was 20 and I was 24 so we are now looking forward to year 2074 when I will be 105 and she 100. March of 2074, Nathaniel will be 71, Benjamin 69 and our newest addition will be 68.
