10 years on

**yungatart** · 22nd March 2007, 08:17

On this day 10 years ago Mstrs and I got married.
We had 6 kids between us - four of them still living at home.
Money was as scarce as hens teeth.
Entertainment had to be cheap - or even better, free.
Life was pretty much a battle to keep our heads above water.

10 years on , we own our own home, not flash but nice enough. We have only one kid left at home + our Finnish boy, who we recently adopted.
We have a bike each, a couple or three cars praked in the driveway and while we still maintain our budget life is not a struggle for $$ anymore.

Entetainment consists of going out on the bikes, picnic lunches on the riverbank in Wairoa - after the ride up there of course.

Things have changed for sure - but Mstrs is still my best friend and the love of my life.
Happy Anniversary and here's to many more

Congrats to MSTRS & Yungatart. 10 years, eh? At this rate you'll soon catch up Mrs H and me (20 years on 28 Feb).

And congrats too to the Selses. 25 years is certainly a sterling effort...

Well done. Must be nice to (almost) have the house to yourself. Mum and Dad reckoned it was like having an extra income when the kids (5 of us) left home.

My wife and I are coming up to 27 years this November. Still got the two boys at home doing tertiary studies.

There are so many people on KB that complain about marriage, and how crap it is... that to read both your posts is an absolute refreshing and inspiring change... thank you!

Congrats to you both...

May the next ten be even better than the first ten.
