this is us


This is us down at the Mardi Gras
This is us in your daddy's car
You and the missing link
Yeah, I'd had a little too much to drink now


Too long in the sun
Having too much fun
You and me and our memories
This is us


Rocking at the barbecue
Yeah, when we said I do
Hand jiving on the ballroom floor
You in that wedding coat you wore
And you in that amazing dress
I was stoned on love I guess


You and me we were meant to be
This is us


This is us on our honeymoon
in our hotel room
Sitting by the wishing well
Checking out of the Love Motel


Making plans for the sunshine state
Waiting at the terminal gate
You and me making history
This is us


And our baby boy
with our pride and joy


You at the Sunday game
standing next to what's his name


On our anniversary
with the family
You and me and our memories
This us

33 years but who's counting
My apologies to Mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou Harris for stealing their lyrics which don't quite match up to my photos but I love the song and the thoughts it conveys.
