Meet the Parents!

Readers seem to have reacted with great enthusiasm to the pictures of their favorite blogger that I posted recently. So now I will post the picture of my parents that they took last week when they celebrated the 36th anniversary of the day they applied for their marriage license. (In the Soviet Union you had to wait for several months after applying before you could get married.) I hope we all feel like celebrating the day we got our marriage licenses / met our partners/ moved in together 36 years later. And I promise that there will be no more personal pictures for a while in the future, so no need to worry. At least I don't have any kittens whose photos I could inflict on my readers. I just miss my parents a lot right now.

We looked better 36 years ago, but we don't look bad now, agree?
Hopefully, we will still look great after another 36 years pass...

Regards,
The father.

My statcounter shows that your writing from Lavale. That's very weird.

Beautiful parents and feelings beautiful. And in the USA it is not necessary to wait any time after filing of application about the introduction into marriage?

2 Father.
36 years ago simply mirrors were others)))
And you haven't changed, I think.
My congratulations!!!

In the US you have to wait for 24 hours. :-) But to get a divorce, you have to wait for at least a year.

The 24 hours varies from state to state.

Clarissa said...

But it's never several months, is it?

I actually really love it when people put personal photos up, it makes them more 'real.' And your parents look adorable, and clearly very much in love!

Thank you, Claire!

No, it is certainly never several months.

Clarissa said...

It would make a lot more sense, in my opinion, to get people to wait before they get married but grant divorces as soon as they want them.

Aww, your folks are adorable!
