    Kilted for wedding anniversary

    My wife Miriam and I will be celebrating our 32 wedding anniversary on Feb 1.
    I have ordered for her (as a surprise) a Black Stewart kilted skirt from Sport Kilt. I have ordered a Stillwater Black Stewart kilt for myself. Decided on the Black Stewart because Miriam has always looked very nice in combinations of red and black.

    I'm also getting her a new white blouse, and a black v-neck sweater for myself. I plan to wear the sweater with a white shirt and red tie, and will wear cream hose with red flashes. My son got Miriam a very nice celtic cross necklace during his recent trip to Ireland. I think it would be a very good addition to her attire. I've made dinner reservations at the Hotel Deville restaurant near the state capital.

    So I hope she is surprised, and likes the kilted skirt. She has been a wonderful wife and mother, and my very best friend over the last 32 years. I wear a kilt as my daily attire, and have not worn trousers since August of 2005. Miriam supports my kilt wearing and goes with me anywhere while kilted.

    Sounds like a thoughtful gift for a wonderful lady. May the next 32 years be even better than the last.

    Congratulations on the Wedding anniversary, it sounds like you have a wonderful woman there, but I am sure you know that already.

    Hey Darrell,

    Congrats on the anniversary and way of celebrating.

    I quit wearing pants back in August 2005 too!

    For what its worth, my lady sometimes likes to wear MY SportKilts as a long tartan dress. She's not as big as me, but the length is right and with the velcro she can shorten the waist to work for her.
