Today we celebrate our 44th wedding anniversary. We were married on Jan.4, 1979, with only 25 folks which included my family and my stepson, Keith. All photos of our wedding were taken by Van Lim, a UPI photographer chosen by my husband. Van captured the emotional peak of the moments.
We renewed our vows with Fr. Camilo Pacanza at St. Lucy’s Church a decade and some years back. He persuaded Enrique that 3 decades have passed. We got our vows renewed, with God and God’s steward with us.
Do I still get excited celebrating it? I do, and now that we are less in youth and more in age, the year goes fast that I stretch the celebration to days.
Happy 44th anniversary Enrique de la Cruz – my dad did not bet on us lasting this long and you thought we would last only five years? God certainly has a better plan than even my dad or you or me can conceive. Here’s to more Caminos!!
P.S. Thank you to my dear family and friends for helping us get here.
41 years ago, when we exchanged our vows in January. My dad was perhaps the happiest of all. Fortunately, we defied the odds against us and persisted to love, to honor, to fight, to struggle, to forgive, to have fun, to dialogue, to depend on each other and to commit to one another every year. #myforevervalentine
My #princess2015la asked when we got married so I shared her the wedding album.
