The Way We Were . . . and Are

We’re celebrating and sharing a special day today — 
Our Anniversary, which is even more special this year because:

  • Anniversary #12
  • On the 21st day
  • In the year 2012

Lots of 2’s and 1’s, so we’re buying some lottery tickets !
How many?  21, of course — those 2’s and 1’s might prove lucky. (But then, we already feel that way.)  Now, for some memories.

THEN — “Beatrice” & “Grenville”  on August 21, 1999 . . .

Our wedding pics1ANOW  — Dorothy & Pat in 2012 . . .

Now collage2We’ve “bared” (or un-beared) our “true” identities with many fellow bloggers, who have been wonderful about keeping our “secret” (THANKS).

B&G collageBeatrice & Grenville are having fun and will continue blogging.

DRAT keep forgetting to add this plug for my favorite Windows blog program. Great feature is that you CAN use it to create off-line posts and then upload them to your blog platform (Blogger, WordPress later). Too bad that it only works on PCs and not MacsLiveWriter-credit-360

Many congratulations. And delurking isn't all that painful, eh?

Maybe I should say decloaking as in a Klingon Bird of Prey (sounds like the right phrase, but I'm not going to bother looking it up).

Happy Anniversary you love birds, Beatrice and Granville. Do something nice like go on a cruise.

Happy Anniversary! So fun to see you then and now. Yes, you do make a lovely couple. Interesting all the 1s and 2s.

Elaine said...

I know you had a happy anniversary, but all my best wishes for the next 12 to be just as great as the first 12. Hope your numbers work out on the lottery, but even if they don't, you can't buy happiness. "Un-beared" made me laugh! Whatever identity you go by it's fun following your adventures, and even more fun after meeting you. Glad that Beatrice and Grenville will keep on blogging!

Unknown said...

Oh this is a great way to show then and now...a great idea to commemorate the anniversary. Belated (again) from us up north, too.
