Off to dinner in 15m! Just untwisted my hair. It's a little damp but it's raining outside anyway, so all I can say is, thank goodness my husband likes a 'fro! ๐
Happy anniversary to your parents. 30 years strong, such a wonderful manifest of Black Love. I wish your parents many, many more blissful years to come. Thanks for sharing with us.
Nikki! Your sister Syl looks just like your mom!!!! You look like both your parents. When I first looked at the picture your sister was the first person that came to my mind. Happy Anniversary to your parents! They have set an example for all to follow.
Your folks are soo handsome in this picture! I always thought you looked like your Dad, but OMG you are the spitting image of your mom at this age!
So wonderful! God bless you all!
Absolutely beautiful.
Awww. That is so wonderful. GOD bless and many more to come. Gives me hope, Im two years in. Long way away from 30 yrs. You look like your mother, wow. I thought it was you!! What a great example to model your marriage after. Congrats!!
Funny, like a lot of people, I thought that was just an old picture of you…but you aren't really old enough for a picture that "old fashioned" looking are you.
Do you think you'll have fabulous silver hair one day too?
I'm loving this pic of your parents! You look just like your mom. What a great example!
Absolutely lovely! I am not married yet, but am with my soul mate and the man I hope to marry once we both finish school. That is an adorable picture and I wish your parents many, many, many more anniversaries!! TRUE love is a wonderful thing..
Thank You CurvyCurly! I appreciate that!
Happy Anniversary to you parents! Happy 30th and many more!
Happy 17th Anniversary Davina! Wishing you 17th more years together, happy, and healthy.

Wow! Just as so many others have said….I thought this was a photograph of you Nikki sitting on your Dad's lap! What a wonderful blessing that your parents are still together and going strong! God.Is.Good. My hubby and I celebrated our 14th this year and I pray that we continue to grow, stay strong, and love hard to make it to our 30th!

It is so good to see a couple live life together, tackle those obstacles and still come out to overcome. What a great example.
Happy 30th anniversary to your parents! I see your dad looking cool with his shirt open! That's probably how he got your mom! Haha j/k I pray that my husband and I will see 30 years and more!

Happy Anniversary to your parents, that is absolutely beautiful! And looking at your Mom back in the day is like looking at you, amazing!
Thanks! Acoustic! I'm giving myself 3 years to get GOOD,!! ๐
For the past few house cleanings, I've been putting her in this tiny playpen and muscling through it! The first few times worked great, but now that she's on to me she's like, "oh no you don't!"
She is too smart for us! ๐
Happy Anniversary to your parents! I love seeing long term love. I didn't realize how much you looked like your mom until now.
I keep looking at this BEAUTIFUL picture! You are your mommy's twin! Beauty runs deep in your gene pool. 30 years! How fabulous is that! Happy Anniversary to your parents..I wish them many more years of love!
Thanks Rhonda! and girl yes, the genes are STRONG in my family! Talk soon! xx
NICE!!!! So cool that you're picking back up the guitar. Acoustic or electric? Good for you!!! I hope you enjoy the baby free day ๐ Isn't it funny how much housework you get done with the kiddos are asleep or missing in action?! Congrats again!
Nik,
At first glance, I thought that was you sitting on your Dad's lap. #genesrundeepandtrue
Happy Anniversary to your dear parents! God's continued blessings for many more happy, healthy years together.
Hi Nikki!
Well, we got a BABYSITTER!!! It'll only be our third date alone since we had our daughter, 14 months ago!( My husband travels A LOT!)
So I think we're gonna go to a fancy restaurant that we got a gift certificate for AS A WEDDING PRESENT!( Again, we don't get out much!) Haha
Other than that, lots of house work all day so I don't have to wake up to a messy home tomorrow and I think we may go shopping for a new guitar today for my anniversary present, so I can pick up an old hobby again with hubby's encouragement. (Yup, he's a keeper!) I got him a really hot travel bag by a brand I never heard of called Wood and Faulk, I think, that he's had his eye on. So we're both happy campers ๐
Thanks for asking! I'm a stay at home mom with a toddler too! You are SUPER encouraging! Keep up the good work!
lol! Thanks Anike ๐
Thanks lady!
Girl I almost thought that was you! ๐ Happy Anniversary to your parents! Many blessings for many more years together!
