I remember when I was newly married and someone in my ward asked me how long I had been married, I think I said something like,
"oh we've been married for a while, I think it's been about a year and a half..."
The person smiled, and laughed,
"yeah, that's a pretty long time!"
I didn't understand why it wasn't considered a long time, we had friends that had only been married for 3 months or so, and we felt like experts compared to them...
HOWEVER,
now that 20 years have passed, I do feel like I've learned a thing or two!! It's been a wonderful journey and I look forward to the next 20..! :)
We were married on June 28th, 1991, in the Salt Lake Temple. Two young kids, stepping out into the world together, so happy! Such a great time!
Not so young, but still making it in the world, together! 20 years is a big deal, and we wanted to celebrate in style, so we started to plan a trip. Should we go to Europe? How about a cruise? We'd been to Hawaii...love to go again...but then we started thinking, well, Alyssa needs a car, and we have a few things left on the basement to finish...our practical personalities took over so we decided to go to Midway, UT and enjoy a few days in this quaint Swiss town. We had so much fun bee-bopping around on Karl's Vespa scooter and just eating in fun little restaurants, and basically just relaxing.
It was perfect for us!!
So blessed to be married to Karl!!
