a mini partyscene for a big occasion !

yes, I have a good reason to show - of ;) - a select part of my miniature collection creating a little partyscene kind of thing because.... :


today my boyfriend and I have been together for 20 years, TWENTY years! I could write a book about him and what he means to me, but for your and my convenience - and not to bore you out of your skulls - let's just keep it at he is one amazing and truly special guy! Who is all I could ever have wished for in a man and I love him more than anything. Yes, even more than miniatures, although it's a close call, haha :D. And I am a very, VERY lucky person to have him in my life.
in two decades we went from being two somewhat insecure teenagers who fell deeply in love to gradually becoming confident adults who went through quite a lot in all those years due to different circumstances and my illness, but are still very strong together, sronger than ever actually.
this (contrasted) photo is from somewhere in the middle of our 20 years together
although we can't go out because of me, we will celebrate this special anniversary at home with a nice stonegrill diner and just be together, which in the end is the most important thing anyway.

cheers, to LOVE! And your soulmates or the ones I wish for you to meet if you haven't found him or her yet and wish to.

and I'm so sorry, but the snacks are gone already.. someone with a big apetite went through everything before anyone had a chance ;)
But here's a look at the empty bag (if anyone likes, I could do a tutorial on this bag someday):

  9. Hi Monique! I bet that it feels that the years has flown by and not like 20 years at all? It is such a blessing to have someone in your corner and there for you no matter what. I wish you both another 20 plus years together too! :D
    Your little party scene is precious. I would be thrilled to know how you made the snack bags.

    Congratulations on 20 years together! I love it when people are still very much in love after all those years =) You are both very lucky to have each other!! I hope I get to celebrate 20 years with my husband too, but we are only at 6 years so far, and our 4th wedding day in a couple of days =)

  16. A little late, but thank you all for your warm comments, good wishes and congrats. We've had a great evening at home, grilling some meats, and enjoying each others company. And toasted on another 20 years of course!
