Today is my 60th Wedding Anniversary

[Mark 1911]

That's right, 60 months ago to this very day I said "I Do" to by beauteous bride!

I know that's cheatin', but at 57, it's the only way I can catch up to you old pros!

Congrats! My wife and I celecbrated our 10th year anniversary yesterday. We celebrated by getting frozen pizza for the kids... clean up the house after the kids ran around... got them to sleep.. then we fell asleep early. The glory days!

Happy anniversary!

It's sort of an inside joke that started when I proposed to her in 2008, I took her to a real fancy restaurant. It was the most expensive date of my life, but worth it. It was pricey, but I told her I would take her back there again for our 50th anniversary (I was 52 when I proposed). So counting months is probably the only way I can live up to that promise. So ever since then, when folks ask us how long we've been married, we tell them the number of months.

Thanks for the well wishes!

"Anniversary" [1200–50; Middle English anniversarie (< Anglo-French) < Medieval Latin (diēs)anniversāria anniversary (day), Latin anniversārius recurring yearly =anni-, comb. form of annus year + vers(us), past participle of vertere to turn + -ārius -ary]

The term you're looking for is "Monthiversary". ...or I guess 5th anniversary would work as well.

I too was married on the 13th of the month.
Hey, Today's my 21st "Monthiversary"!!

Edit: just saw your explanation... how cute. Congrats on the 5/60

OH GREAT! NOW you tell me. Even if I explain this to the wife, I don't expect she's willing to let me off the hook for another 45 years for that return trip to La Spiaggia since I've been kidding her for the last 5 years now.

My wonderful wife and I are pushing 33 and soon to be 34 years (I think) and what a great ride good and bad it has been.

Happy 60 months.

I'll be 86 when we hit that one - if I'm so lucky. Congrats!

Congrats. Nothing better than to live well and have someone to share it with.

Going on 32 years myself, and I got married at 20 ( I know wtf were we thinking, right?).

But the good part is the kids are gone and we're still young enough to really enjoy it.

Congrats, OP. But my first response to seeing the thread title was to reply: You are a lot older than I thought you were.

That's what is known as old married couple status. And age is irrelevant. And congrats!

By month math, our will be gross. I mean, A gross.

 

[Hawkeye]

We just did our 37th last month, or by this standard, 444th!

 

[actaeon277]

Congrats.
When I read the title, I was thinking, "WOW! He didn't look that old when I met him"

 

[Birds Away]

Cograts OP. You give us old single guys hope that you can actually find someone at this age.

 

[kestersonj]

Congratulations!

Man - we'll be on our 72nd next month.

"How long have you been married?"

- - - long enough that I don't look both ways before crossing the street - - -

You have a good start off the blocks, but never forget that this is a marathon.
