Obamas celebrate 19th wedding anniversary
President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama went out to dinner on Saturday night to celebrate their 19th wedding anniversary.

According to a White House pool report, they ate at Restaurant Eve in Alexandria, Va. The restaurant, described as "quaint yet sophisticated" on its website, sent out this tweet after the Obamas' visit: “Love people who have great palates and dine with us... especially uh... THE PRESIDENT AND HIS BEAUTIFUL WIFE!!!”

The first couple’s anniversary is on Monday.

LOL! Look at the look on President Obama's face. You can tell they really love each other.

1. Should we start a pool for how long until they divorce?
That's what my friends did when I got married.

Marriage is very complex thing in life and to get trough life without any divorce that tends to happen with family's is very amazing accomplishment in this day and age. And they don't need to pardon to so called "family values" to have a well lived healthy relationship.

7. There was a picture of them a few years ago sitting at a kitchen table with the girls. Barak and
Michelle were sitting beside each other rather than at each end. I thought that was so cute. They are the cutest couple.

10. Congratulations to them. Many, many more.

They have a ways to go until marriage gets really, really a wonderful thing.

People just give up too soon. I hope they don't give up on each other ever because a long marriage and good children are the most important and most rewarding things ever.

I've had quite an interesting life, but my long marriage and my wonderful children are what I cherish most. Words to the wise: make your marriage work. If you need help, get it, and be humble about it. You won't regret it, but all good things take time.
