Some of you may not realize that TheWoodWhisperer.com is actually just a blog. And as such, I reserve the right to post completely off-topic content such as this. Today is mine and Nicole’s 6th wedding anniversary. I know it seems like all we are doing lately is celebrating anniversaries! Unfortunately, Nicole is out of town at a conference, so we can’t be together today. But I figured that embarrassing her with a public display of affection like this would be some sort of consolation. So to my beautiful bride, my best friend, and my “partner in crime”, Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary! It’s my wife’s B-day today. Hope you are together again soon.
Congrats you guys! I had to be away from my wife on our anniversary (our second) this year too, not easy. Thanks for all you two do for us, may God bless you both!
Congrats! I missed my first and second due to work. I know how you feel. I wish you many more, and thank you both for your time and effort.
Congrats Mark and Nicole! My wife and I celebrated our six year anniversary on Oct. 4! Gotta love fall weddings.
Did you know that the modern anniversary gift symbol for 6 years is wood? Alternatives are iron and sugar, but I opted for the former: http://weekndr.wordpress.com/2.....e-of-wood/
Congrats to the both of you. I know what its like to have a travling Wife and it can be a drain. Mine is off on a conferance this week as well but I get left with the 15 month old. Keep up the great work, and remember if it wasn’t for Nichole traveling we might not have TWW at all.
You’re earning that Nerd t-shirt with room to spare!
Happy Anniversary to you both!
One of the highlights of TWW has been the family-centric tone. Was reminded of that with your anniversary show; still remember her cameo in “A Lumbering Feeling”
(ps–had our 6th anniversary back in September; 2003 seems to have been a good year)
Congrats, the wife and I just had our 20th. Keep doing what ever is you are doing, and it will last.
Happy Anniversary to both of you!!! We celebrated our 6th anniversary beginning of this year too.
My wife and I just celebrated our 4 year anniversary!! Here’s to many more!
at the risk of sounding redundant… congratulations to the both of you! my wife and i just celebrated our 1st anniversary just a couple weeks ago. may there be many more happy years together for you both.

Happy Anniversary! :D
Congratulations Mark, my wife and I are celebrating our 18th this evening. Have a good day any way(in spite of her not being there), Gary
Hey, who’s the hottie in the mirror? :->
Congradulations – and that’s spreading it on pretty thick -
Usually works for me :}
Congratulations to both of you. Have something special prepared for when she gets back. I don’t think it always matters when you celebrate, as long as you do something.
Cool, Happy Anniversary to both of you. Funny thing, it’s been 6 years for me and my wife as well (Aug 30th). I hope you guys will have many many more anniversary to celebrate together (she won’t be out of town every year you know :).
Oh, man – she put up with you THIS long? She’s a keeper! :-)
I must have met you guys as newlyweds all those years ago up in Indiana…
Congratulations!!! Being married is the best!
Congrats man! That is a great pic by the way.
Congrats and many happy returns of the day.
Hey guys,
Happy day!!! I hope you do something nice for Nicole when she comes home Marc!
Way to go … kids!
Happy Anniversary, Marc and Nicole! Here’s to many, many more happy years together. :o)
Dear Spagnuolo’s,
It’s been great observing such a happy couple these few short years! Congratulations and I wish all the happiness in the world upon you two.
… I also hope that you two will continue to provide the incredible amount of Photoshop fodder that you do. I love this stuff!!!
Nicole,
Got any pictures of Marc in his tux????
Happy Anniversary,
Pete
Marc, We’d be disappointed in you if you didn’t do stuff like this. It seems pretty obvious how important Nicole is to you… Which is how it should be! Give her a call, send her flowers or something, don’t let the day go by without reaching out somehow…
..and what a lucky guy you are. A team to be reckoned with!
Let me also add my Happy Anniversary wishes to you both.
Well done guys. According to stats you are now in the top half of marriages by length of time (ie half of all marriages fail in the first 6 years)
Congratulations! In a couple weeks, my wife and I will be celebrating our 12th!
Hehe you stinker! When I get to a decent Internet connection I’m going to dig out a wedding picture of you :) love you!
Give ‘em Hell Nicole !
*tacklehugs for both of you*! Congrats!
Congrats you two! Now what you gotta do is make a series on how to build a wooden boombox, which you can hold over your head outside your house. Granted, there won’t be any music, but it’s the symbolism that counts!
Congrats, guys! You make a great pair!
Congratulations Marc and Nicole. Me and mine will celebrate our 22th soon. Keep up the good work.
Congratulations! It may “just be a blog” but it’s an awesome one at that. Definitely not average.
No need to explain Marc. We’re family. Congratulations on 6 years of marriage!
Congratulations and happy anniversary!
Happy anniversary you guys!! Many more to come!!
Happy Anniversary!!!
Sung “Flintstones” style
Ooooo Happy Anniversary
Happy Anniversary
Happy Anniversary
Haaappy Anniversary
Nothing like getting a song stuck in your head… :)
Congratulations on your 6 years! Great minds must think alike. It’s our anniversary too, only we’ve got a year on you.
May you have 94 more of them.
Happy Anniversary, Marc and Nicole! It is a special gift to be blessed by a soul mate. I hope you have a life full of happy blessings together!!
Congratulations! Wishing many more anniversaries to you and Nicole.
Marc and Nicole
Congratulations to both of you…
Wishing you many more years of Happiness together!
Joe
congratulations
Okay so I mispelled it!
Happy Anniversary!
Congrats you two love birds!!
A public display of affection…sounds like someone needs to make a major tool purchase! =)
Congrats !!!
Here is to 50 more!!!
Happy anniversary & Many more !!!
Embarrassed? I doubt it… women LOVE public displays of affection… you know, up to a point… and remember, EVERY anniversary is the wood anniversary… nudge nudge… say no more…
Happy anniversary to you both. I’ve got you beat by a year, and it only keeps getting better.
Happy Aniversary to you both. Hope you have a wonderful celebration when Nicole gets back. Wishing you all the health, happiness and other good things in this year and in the years to come.
CONGRATS! Cherish each and every one you get.
Happy Anniversary you two,
Nicole is quite stunning to say the least.
Congratulations Marc and Nicole from Jane and me.
Happy Anniversary
We celebrated our 18th anniversary this last June.
Time flies by quick, try to enjoy every day you are together.
Congrats Mr and Mrs Spagnuolo!!! Happy Anniversary!!! My wife and I just celebrated our 1st year.
May your future together be bright, successful and happy!
Congrats Mark, what is that old saying? Count the number of tools bought in the first 5 years and see if that number equals the next 5 years. Well something like that. One question Mark. If 25 years of marriage is silver and 50 is gold, what is wood?
Congrats guys !! You make a great couple. I tip my hat – and my glass – to you. May you have many, many more happy years ahead.
Congrats! My wife and I have been together for 15 years and it doesn’t seem that long. They say time flies when you’re having fun. So, I have no idea why it’s flying for me. (:>P)
Hey Marc, I have a photo similar to Nicole’s of my wife and she looks as stunning as your wife does. When I look at that photo the first thing that comes to my head is How in the hell did this dumbass convince that hottie to marry me? I’m still amazed after 18 years.
It sucks that she’s away but that will make her returning home that much sweeter.
Congratulations to both of you!
Congratulations Nicole and Marc.
Just make it a anniversary weekend. We just had our 5th the 16th of october.
Nicole- i think he does it to let you know – you ll have to make up for it !!
Greetz from Belgium
Congratulations to you both.
Congratulations!
Congratulations to both of you
My Wife and I have been Married 28 years Next July
Nicole and Marc if you thought the last six years were good the next six will be better
That is great. In these days when most marriages last 6 seconds, six years is something to be quite proud of. Just keep listening to each other and talk about everything. Remember, there is a reason God gave you 2 ears and only one mouth. December will be 16 for my wife and I. Congrats again.
Congrats Marc and Nicole. Your friendship is evident and I recognize it because of the relationship I have with my wife, Rita. You are a lucky man.
Wow Wow Wow! A lot of times we throw around the work “family” when it comes to internet communities. This is one of those times when it really feels like you guys are all our extended family. Thanks so much everyone. And Happy Anniversary to all of you who are celebrating your own.
We’re almost to our 20th… :) And I too usually go for the public display on my blog.
Congrats to the two of you!
I know I’m a little late in adding my “congrats” to the mantle. But there is nothing more precious than time spent together. And nothing more satisfying than sharing it with others you care about.
Nicole and Marc, Congratulations!
I can only hope my wife and I can be as deliriously happy with each other as you two are when we hit “6.” (in another 18 months…)
Congrats! Will be 13 years for my wife and I next month!
Gotcha beat Marc. The 22nd is my hubby and my 13th year anniversary and he is out of town with a work conference…
I’m goinna use the free time in my shop..
Nicole and Marc, Congrats!
To paraphrase what someone told me once: Marriage is like a slow cooking stew, you add your own ingredients to taste but you have to keep stirring the pot. If you don’t stir it from time to time, it will burn and stink up the house.
(…Now I don’t know if I need to get lunch or to give my wife some flowers…) anyway – best wishes.
Congratulations and best wishes for many more!!!
Congrats, Marc. But might you be doing dishes or laundry for a month for posting that pic of Nicole. I sure hope she’s having fun at her conference.
We just passed #18. I guess we’ll be taking a trip overseas for #20. Gotta save our pennies starting now.
Hey you did not post the earlier photos of Niclooe getting dressed, but if you are up to it, go for it… then you will own the dishes, laundery and the couch.
Any congratulation, just 44 yrs to go, no itching (the 7th years is coming up)
Well, judging from the above posts, I must be the old fart in the group. Today(10/23) is my 41st with the same woman and I didn’t get married until I was 25.
Congratulation Nicole and Marc!!
Jim
You do so much for the woodworking community and you have a great and kind spirit, Marc. So many of us are eager to see you delve into your projects and are inspired to try our own! For that, I thank you.
Sorry your wife is away on business, but Happy Anniversary to both of you, and many, many years of happiness!
Happy Anniversary to you both! I wonder how Nicole felt about seeing the wedding photo on the blog? It looks like she is inspecting the craftsmanship that went into making that mirror frame in the photo…you didn’t know it then but that was a premonition of The Wood Whisperer!
Classy Marc, congradulations on your aniversary. Bob
Marc,
Congratulations to you both! Susanne and I celebrated our 39th this year, and we’re still glad we got married.
You’re a lucky guy to have a wife who is so pretty and also understanding of your woodworkiness. I believe she has a great sense of humor – and a nice laugh.
Congratulations to both of you! Why did you get married a day before my birthday though? Lol You two seem really great together and I wish you a long and happy marriage. I’ve missed several anniversaries and birthdays due to traveling for work so just realize your love for each other transcends the day or the date and you’re always together :)
Happy 16th for my wife and I. I hope you and Nicole have as much fun as we have reaching it.
Marc,
Absolutely love this picture! Beautifully composed! Congrates on your Anniversary! Best wishes for many joyous years to come. Can’t wait to see the picture of you that Nicole digs out. Happy woodworking,
Danny
Congrats. Much happiness.
Well Congrats to you and Nicole on your anniversary. Hope you two have many more. On a different note, I am new to your web site and podcasts. I found you on iTunes and am in the precess of downloading all of your podcasts. I have been very impressed by the content and sense of humor you and your wife have. I love woodworking and watch a lot of woodworking show but non are as entertaining as your podcast. I have only watched a few but have learned several things in the few I have watched. Continue the good work. Thanks, Spencer
Congrats! Very nice picture. I wish you many more anniversaries to come!
