Anniversary Waltz

20 years... wow.

Seems like forever... seems like yesterday.

As amazing as it is to say, Bruce and I will have been married twenty years, as of this May 28th. (Yes, betrothed in childhood, right, Dad? Right, Mom?!). That, on top of our having survived the first year of seminary, is worth celebrating, we think.

Now, this year the 28th falls on a Wednesday, which is a work day for Bruce and a school day for me, 50 miles north-- a distance not conducive to festivity, to put it mildly. So, in fine Seabury tradition, we are moving the feast day to the following Sunday, June 1. We're planning a cookout that afternoon, starting about 1:00 pm or so-- grilling this and that, and dishes to pass. Nothing formal-- not at our house. We're planning to cook bratwurst, I think, (and taking recommendations for our vegetarian friends!) and we'll have plenty of pop on hand. If folks would like to contribute a salad or other delicacy to the feast, that's great, but not necessary-- don't sweat it; just come.

Please don't even think about gifts; the opportunity to share the day with people we love is the best present we could hope for. If this gives you a twitch, buy a card; we are highly amused by cards.

Give me a call, or drop me an email, and tell us you're coming. If you need one, I can make a dandy map; just let me know.
