Reaching a Milestone - 25 Years

By
Real Estate Agent with Chuck Willman 9334967-SA00

HAPPY 25

As I pulled in the driveway this afternoon,

this was among the artwork

that graced the driveway.

Please indulge me for one moment.

This post has nothing to do with real estate...

... it's just a note to my dear friends.

Today marks a special occasion.

Twenty five years ago I became to the most fortunate man in the world.

...and here we are...

...six wonderful kids...

and one grandchild later.

Life could not be better.

I'm looking forward to the next 25... and the 25 after that... and, with technology, who knows?

...And this is what happens when Barbie and Ken get married!

Wow!  You guys are GORGEOUS! 

Congratulations, Chuck!  When did you guys get together: at 4?  (years old, that is...  none of you look over 30!)

Ann- thanks so much!

Mirela- your compliments are overwhelming... it's official- I want you writing all my listings! :-) By the way... we didn't get together when we were 4... it was... ok... you're right. We were 4.

Chuck - what a gorgeous family. I was looking at the picture and thinking "Aren't Chuck's kids goodlooking?" It took me a full minute to realize you and your wife were in the back.  I think you guys need to get into the anti-aging business - I'd buy whatever you were selling! :-)

Jackie- We're in back for a reason. Distance helps hide a year or two (ok... we figured it's worth a shot.)

Liz- Yep- every one of them- except for the son-in-law and grandson. I know. We're insane. :-)

What a beautiful family you have!  So very few make it to their 25th wedding anniversary.  I wish you many, many more!  JENNIFER

Doreen- Thanks for the congrats... the celebrating is forthcoming: we'll be headed on a long vacaton... of course, we'll miss the kids and cut it short (just like always).

Chuck: Thank you for the wonderful contribution you made yesterday on my "Toxic People" blog.  I will read those books.  Thank you for the advice and direction! 

Where are you guys going for your 25-th honeymoon?

An Alaskan cruise would be awesome (plus you couldn't cut a cruise short)...

Mirela- We're too warm-blooded for Alaska- but we are planning on someplace with lower temperatures. I can't reveal the secret but I'll tell you this- it rhymes with Ja-Why-EE.

Kevin- I've found that five is more difficult than six just as three was more difficult than four.... there's something about pairing up that makes things go smoothly... have you found it that way as well?

Wow, 1 boy and a bunch of girls.  You better get to selling some houses, you have a lot of weddings in your future.

Congrats on the 25, especially in this world where so few make it to 5.
