No man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married for quarter of a century.

The silver 25th anniversary is a milestone wedding anniversary. And rightly so! Spending a quarter of a century in love with one person is to be celebrated.

December 18th will mark our Silver 25th Wedding Anniversary. We celebrated early, and all week. We stayed at the Hyatt House, ate dinner in Montclair Village in Oakland, walked the Temple grounds, enjoyed the music and Christmas lights. Ate the best pizza in the Bay Area, Zachary's. Paella in Monterey, and of course we watched "The Hobbit". Boarded the Hornblower for our anniversary dinner and cruise of the Bay. We listened to a live band play a mix of Christmas music, ballads, and current pop. We danced to "The Way You Look Tonight". We stood at the ship's bow and sailed under the Golden Gate Bridge, we watched shooting stars shoot across the black sky. Cruised by Jack London Square, and The Palace of Fine Arts, all adorned in Christmas lights.We love having a  December anniversary, because we feel like everyone is celebrating with us. Happy 25!

If anyone ever deserved a magical night of romance & shooting stars, it's the two of you.

We did have a wonderful time! And, the falling stars weren't just for us- it was a meteor shower, but we loved it!!! Thank you! :)
