My 35th anniversary ....

in Ladies of Hive14 days ago

Fourthy years ago I met this girl , five years later we got married ,five years later we got our daughter ,twenty six years later , she got a daughter and tomorrow it will be our 35th anniversary.

I took some snapshots with my mobile from our 35 year old wedding album to share with you.

Yes even i was young once , long time ago 😂

And i used to be a guy that would say marriage is not for me , just like the dog on the front of the wedding card , but things happen in live and makes you realise you can't do it all alone.

1 )


2 )And as the card shows you meet someone to spend the rest of your life with.


3 ) Even back then i liked to put people on the wrong foot , so we decided that the first picture in our wedding album would be this , me in the dress and my wife in the suit , and every time we went to visit people with the album that weren't at the wedding .. those faces like no you didn't .. 😂


4 ) And no we didn't back then we still had those old phones connected to a landline something like this .. vintage brick GIF

5 ) Time to get in the wedding car , and move to the city hall , for the automobile enthousiastic people it was an Auston martin Lagonda only 645 cars of this model were build . There will be a photo of the front of the car further in the post .

6 ) On arival at the city hall our dogs were waiting for us , our Golden retriver Shirley and our darkbrown New foundlander Brenda .

7 ) They both past away in 1997 shortly after each other , after we moved from Enschede to Oss .

8 ) Yes, let's give it a try .

I know i was suppose to say YES but instead i said "yes , let's give it a try" , and even today we are still trying 😁

9 ) The rings , honnestly i haven't wear mine in a long time neither does my wife in her line of work it's a handicap to have a ring on your finger and when i was assembling computers in the passt it always came in the way if i needed to get my hand in the computer to adjust cables or jumpers.
The ring was made of matte silver with a shiny gold drop on it , they are probably somewhere in the house.

10 ) And then you need to sign

11 ) The wedding bouquet

And after the wedding we went to a location for some wedding photos, i picked the location myself https://ruinevanbrederode.nl/ the website for info , they didn't have that back then neither did they have google maps back the but here is the link so you can see the location . https://maps.app.goo.gl/PyWQhNtEfeXvZzdx5

12 ) Like i promissed at photo 5 a photo of the front of the car with young couple.

13 ) Some romatic shots in the park surounding the castle.

14 ) natural sunlight hitting the dress making it glow, almost like she is hovering ..


In all those 35 years we moved arround a lot for work and carreer.
in 1991 we were running two tobaco stores in Amsterdam , in 1993 i went to The Gambia, in West-Africa to try and setup a new company but unfortunitly there was a militairy coup an i had to abandon everything.
Then in 1997 i got a job offer on the other side of the country so we moved with our baby to Enschede and after 6 months i got an even better offer and so we moved again down south to a samll village called Oss , we stayed in Oss in 3 differend locations , until 2017 then we moved to the city of Nijmegen and in December 2024 we moved to this location near Amersfoort , to live closer to our daughter and granddaughter.

15 ) Hold her tight she might fall out of the photo 😜

16 ) Can you believe that in all those years we never had a fight or big argument , we always respectfull talked to each other. Maybe that is why we are still together because we respect each other no matter what happens, and believe me we had our ups and downs in life in health and finacial but we came through a lot stronger.

So why post it today , well tomorrow we will be out and bussy doing the things we like to do together we celebrate it together no big party. I'll bring the cameras and maybe i capture something on camera to post on Monday.

Well that is all for today

The best gift i could get is another 35 years with the same wife and if possible both in good health 😎, but if you like to give something else i would be very happy with a vote on my witness Stresskiller currently in place 65 .

You were a cute young man, and Ingrid was a very lovely bride! 😍
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! to both of you, and here's to many more! ❤️

!PIMP

Thank you , we also hope for more years in good helath , time will tell .

Here’s to another 35 years together!! Respect is the cornerstone of any lasting relationship, and you’ve got it. How wonderful… I was looking at the photos, reading the post and thinking… what an example! Respect above all else.
And you’ve got my vote as a witness on Hive!!!

I hope you have a wonderful time tomorrow! Happy anniversary!🤗

Another 35 years in good health would be nice indeed , the respect part i agree i see so many people that got maried around the same time we did that have devorced, it's almost as if people give up at the first strugle in the relation.

We did have a wonderfull time yesterday , mor about that in a post coming up .

I think there’s not much tolerance or communication in relationships these days, and that’s why they don’t last very long. That’s why, as you said, respect is essential. I’m glad you had such a great time!

Thanks for being around! 😇

I still have lots to learn :D both with IRL and about becoming (one day) a grandfather!

well I'm still learning everyday about being a witness and keeping a backup node running , being a grandfather is nice in my situation i can imagine that it's not for everyone .

Congratulations on finding your forever someone and still being friends! Great shots. AND...you do look quite good in a wedding gown. LOL

Congratulations!!! 35 years is a long time but not that long because you can easily spend another 35 years or more together and I'm sure your clan will continue to grow!

Thank you , would be nice to see my clan grow , and maybe even become greatgrand dad and mom in the future, who knows what the future beholds .

Happy Anniversary 👏 💖 in Advance. Its very well evident from point 16, the secret of your successful marriage . Wishing you many more years of happiness 😊

Thank you , we hope to stick arround together for a while longer .

Let Almighty bless you abundantly

Happy Anniversary to both of you!

Thank you Melinda

Happy Wedding Anniversary, Mick. I wish both of you many more years and happiness, and silly photos liek the wedding one. :)

Yes, let's try it! It's the best response you can give in a tense moment, hahaha.
What you just wrote is incredible. 35 years, wow, so many lifetimes. Brother, try to get those rings, hahaha And happy anniversary to you both.

Thank you, those rings are just a symbol we both know that in the end it's about us not the rings .

What a lovely story and wow love the pictures lol for the first one 🤣 you surely were a funny couple it's good it's the first from the album by the way also the one with the car seems a jump in time, love your wife hair colour so much ❤️ happy anniversary

Thank you , yeah that first picture always get people of guard and that car i've tried a couple times to buy one in good shape but never suceeded.

Firstly, Happy Anniversary to both of you!!! 🥂

Secondly... Explain to me more about that first photo, as I'm still confused... 😂 Are your heads just photoshopped/switched places, or do you magically fit in that white wedding dress? 😃

I mean, everything is possible, so this needs clarification... 😃

Thank you , well back then my weight was only 50 kilo and i fitted easily in the dress except for the shoulders so we kept the back of the dress open on photo but people don't see that . They didn't have photoshop back then with this kind of quality .
we are talking about 1991 .. Amiga time with the good old Motorolla 68000 12hz cpu , and maybe 80486DX2/66 beside that but still not the graphical power for photoshop.

486DX2/66

That's one I had... but on 80MHz! Mighty machine! 😂

the last 486 i had was from texas instruments a 486 DX4 100 we were so happy back then with 8MB memory

Happy 35th Wedding Anniversary @stresskiller! Beautiful photos! Happy for you both! Enjoy tomorrow and be sure to take a spin in a car similar to the one in the picture! I hope it's warm where you're at!

Take care! !LADY
