Happy Anniversary [Joe] feel like I was just a girl when I married you at 25 but boy, I was a pretty smart one. The good and the bad, the ups and the downs, having people watch our every move like we're in a fishbowl. We've made it! All While inspiring others and showing them what marriage truly is and what it could really be. My dream is that our kids have watched us through the years and are as happy in their marriages.
