30th Anniversary


7 January 1978
- 7 January 2008.

We have now reached the 'pearl' anniversary! Because of a very busy series of weeks this day seemed like it was going to be very low key. Then a parcel arrived from Peter's Mum and Dad with special things they wanted to pass on to us, and one of them was a pearl necklace. How special is that! Peter received a pearl tie-pin. So it was a pearl anniversary after all.

We lunched in the sun at Epping Plaza at an outside cafe. The day was a perfect 25 degrees with a breeze. We planned to buy a pushbike to mark the day and selected one which we will pick up later. It looks like we'll be doing some biking soon.

When we were married in Brisbane, it was very hot and people had to be coaxed out of the shadows for photos. But we did not notice. That day was 'our' perfect day, and through God's grace we have survived awkward times to find deeper love and acceptance of each other.
