So...you think YOU have been married a long time?
« on: March 27, 2013, 11:53:52 am »
John and Ann Betar of Connecticut have just been named the longest married couple in the U.S.!
He's 101 and she's 97, and have been married 80 years.
I never really wanted to grow up....All I wanted was to be able to reach the cookie jar...and play with my DW 788

Are you sure they're not brother and sister? They sure look alike.

It has been said, "If you live with someone long enough, you'll look like them." I know that's right.

It boggles my mind to think of all the history & technology they have seen.  [ It'll be 49 years for us this spring if she lets me live that long]  :D

We are coming up for 42 and my daughters new boyfriend is the same age which is kind of weird and looking at him sure makes 42 years feel like a long time. 

TheMelster I sure hope your wrong I would not like to look like my husband and I certainly know he would not want to look like me.  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :

Time is relative, I am sure if you asked that couple they would say " Where did the time go"? Enjoy what you have while you have it. Have a great Easter weekend everyone.
