17 years of being married to the man STILL in my dreams

Today we celebrated 17 years of marriage.
A marriage that has had some downs, which have made way for many, many UPS!

Jason and i met in October 1993 at the World's Biggest BBQ at Robertson Oval in Wagga Wagga. I was a Tooheys promotion girl and i caught his eye (and the rest is history...haha) By Dec that year i had moved across to live with him in the small town of Leeton where Jason was born and raised. Where we built our first home in 1994 (in-which he proposed to me on hand over day just after the builder drove off and i was sweeping the kitchen floor)

We married in 1995 over in Wagga Wagga and our reception was held at The Old Wagga Inn. I was 21 and Jason 25 years old.
Left to Right: Lisa Aliendi (Jasons sister), Jodie Carey (Morrow), Jeannette Baillie (Billie), Me, Treeni McDonald (Templeton), and my sister Prue Adams. Flower girl: Jason's niece Megan.
Left to Right : My brother Raymond(Archie), Andrew Day, Jason, Chris Gale, Clayton Dunn, Gary Schmetzer
Husband and Wife
Love my Dad x
This photo was taken while i was stitting on the toilet just before i was about to leave for the church. lol


We lived in Leeton until 2004 where we raised our gorgeous 3 children. We moved our young family to the Gold Coast in Dec 2004 and have settled in nicely. It is HOME for us now.

Today 17 years on we are so much more united and have learn't throughout our marriage that communication is the key...

Today I am proud to say i have a honest, strong & very happy marriage. Today i share 17 years of marriage with the man STILL in my dreams.

Love Penny x
