Dean Esmay, I Love You (Rosemary)

On this day, eight years ago, I married my best friend and soulmate. Many thought we were nuts.

We met on June 12, 1995. We lived in two different states. We romanced each other on weekends.

Four weeks later, on the phone and in a drunken stupor, Dean proposed at 4 am. I didn't hold him to it but I did enjoy his discomfort.

Two weeks later on August 1st, in grand style, Dean proposed again in person.

I accepted.

On December 15th, I married the love of my life.

And I would do it again.

Happy Anniversary Honey.
I love you.

Love you, babe.

We were crazy to get married after such a short courtship, but I'd do it all over again.

Happy Anniversary, Dean and Rosemary.

It's great to hear two clear, distinct voices. And by the way, sometimes, don't you still live in "two different states"?

Just saying.

Remember Pee Wee Hermans' Great Adventure to find his bicycle in the basement of the Alamo? Well, I have been looking everywhere for that darn basement but wanted to come out of the Alamo down here to WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Wish you were down here in San Antonio, I would buy you a Texas size Margarita! I WISH YOU MANY MORE YEARS AND LOTS OF LOVE! Well, before it gets dark, I better go find that basement!

Warm congratulations to you both.

Don't forget the importance of talking (God, how tedious, but the babes like it).

Actually, some of us guys like it, too. We'd, once in a while, actually like to know where we stand with you.

Congratulations to both of you!

Being married to a wonderful woman is the best part of my life. It's wonderful to hear that you are so happily married as well. Thanks to both of you for the great blog!

We just celebrated our 30th in august, our love is as strong or stronger as the years have gone by. May your love, dedication, and devotion build through the years. They (who ever that is) say that love will keep you young, well yes and no. Young in spirit yes, young in years.. well after a while you're counting grandchildren and forgetting birthdays, there's so many of them, but always remembering the happiness, the dreams that brought you together, the love that keeps you close and the comitment that will, forever, keep you as one.
