Anniversary of sorts
« on: August 26, 2007, 06:52:53 AM »
Four years ago today Liliya first set foot on American soil. Seems like a lifetime ago!

But after all we've been through together, she still manages to convey that innocent charm that first attracted me to her.  :)

Congratulations Jet.  It is nice to see those who have found such a wonderful woman and found the happiness most of us dream of.   I am sure it is a great inspiration to those who follow.

Damn Jet, she's been putting up with you for 4 years! Wow!! I figure I've got maybe another year before Elena beats me with a frying pan so I won't quite make the 4 year mark...  :D

Congratulations to both of you! It is a lot of hard work to get to that place.

Congrats Jet,

We all know you're very proud of your wife by your posts over the years. The fact that she hasn't killed you yet is testament to your good character too.

Congrats Jet...  you are indeed a lucky man. 

Nice photos too, but I only have one concern...

In the first photo we can clearly see Liliya standing in a "No Standing Zone"... Was this an act of defiance of the authorities or an unintentional flouting of the laws?

Definitely an act of defiance of the authorities!
Yeah we laughed our @sses off over that too at the time - one day in the states and already causing trouble  :tongueout:

Thanks for all the well wishes - we commemorated the day with an afternoon trip to our favorite park for shrimp and scallops on the barbie, a little libation and some Ruskie salads and dessert. A nice day out, and no, your not going to hear about what I hope to be a nice evening in  :-X 8)

Back to that NYC photo, Jet, I believe she was also eligible for a 2nd ticket,
you know, blocking the fire hydrant!  ;D

Four years. Enjoy yourselves this evening!

Congratulations Jet and Liliya!!!
THANK YOU for the inspiration that your life’s story and you as two main heroes bring in heart to those of Russian women who desire to become a huge reward to their husband in your Liliya’s way!!!

Congrats Jet,,, nice milestone.  4 years is a good starting point.  I'm sure it will go the distance now.

One of these days I'll post a recent pic of Etna however it hard to take a picture as I chase her around the bed posts.  And every now and then she lets me catch her.

Congratulations Jet.  Such defiance of authority is a typical Russian habit. They are more practical than logical. :cheesygrin:

Thanks again to everyone who has commented!

jj - don't worry, the first six months will go plenty slow enough  ;)

jb - with your collection of cameras, I'm sure you'll be able to set up an ambush at some point (but something tells me Etna hates that as much as Lil  ;D)
      Anyway, it's always nice to see pics of your family - hope the boys are doing well (ok, men!)

Shadow - LOL, that sign was obviously meant for the other billion visitors to NYC, certainly not her  ;D

Jet,

Congratulations to you both. She's looks like a very nice lady. I asked a buddy of mine who has been married for about 15 yrs to an FSUW if she ever stopped holding on to his arm when they walk, and he said it's the same as when they 1st met. That's something for us all to look forward to in the long run.
