thirty two years

32 years... That's Me +7 years which translates to a super duper lonnnng time. This is how long my parents have been married for as of the August long weekend. We never really celebrate their wedding anniversaries as a family because my sisters and I are jerksI think. It's not really ours to celebrate anyways, it's theirs, which is another way of saying I'm totally not buying them an anniversary present!

I was going to do some research on marriage statistics and so forth but it was terribly disheartening so I gave up and decided to not put anything useful at all in this blog. HOWEVER - DON'T LEAVE YET! I did poll my parents (on bbm) on what there favorite thing about the other was and here's what they had to say:

Me: Hey Dad- what's your favorite thing about Mom?!
Me.: PING!!!
Dad: She Unconditionally Loves Me. I think. Why:)?
Me: Just wondering!

Me.: Hey what's your favorite thing about Dad?
Mom: He's funny and never says anything bad about anybody
Mom: Why
Me: Just wonderin:)

So there you have it. My mom loves my dad because he's funny and my dad loves my mom because she loves him. Happy anniversary mom and dad, I hope you have many many more to come (odds are bad though if dad keeps drinking liters of pickle juice straight out of the jar).
