1979 in the living room...

Posted by Judy (Brooksville, Florida, United States) on 21 December 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

This old and grainy photo is dated Aug. 1979, but why would Mike be wearing a sweater in August? I think Susan took this shot of us around the time of our 20th anniversary. Is this really almost 30 years old?
I don't feel too much different, but my 'get up and go', got up and went somewhere! ♥

What is the expression? Two peas in a pod! Not sure if I am expressing this right but it was the first thing that came to my mind.
Or in other words a great looking couple.

That's a terrific photo! The smiles go to your eyes; I love that it's obvious there was no fake cheer for the camera.

Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

Got to agree with all the comments except the one that you look like each other. But the camera has captured the happiness that you both share in being with one another. Lovely photo Judy.

@Marion: Thank you, Marion ... I was beginning to wonder if I'd really changed that much. :D
Happiness doesn't just 'fall into our laps" - right? It's something to be nurtured, like love, so that it can grow! xx
