the new, official, Mr and Mrs. McLargehuge "our song"

[BigMcLargehuge]

Sure, it's a song about a fling, but everyday is like a fling with us ;)

Tunnel of Love

getting crazy on the waltzers but it's the life that I choose
sing about the sixblade sing about the switchback and a torture tattoo
and I been riding on a ghost train where the cars they scream and slam
and I don't know where I'll be tonight but I'd always tell you where I am

in a screaming ring of faces I seen her standing in the light
she had a ticket for the races just like me she was a victim of the night
I put a hand upon the lever said let it rock and let it roll
I had the one arm bandit fever there was an arrow through my heart and my soul

and the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
and I'm just high on the world
come on and take a low ride with me girl
on the tunnel of love

it's just the danger when you're riding at your own risk
she said you are the perfect stranger she said baby let's keep it like this
it's just a cake walk twisting baby step right up and say
hey mister give me two give me two cos any two can play

and the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
and I'm just high on the world
come on and take a low ride with me girl
on the tunnel of love

well it's been money for muscle another whirligig
money for muscle and another girl I dig
another hustle just to make it big
and rockaway rockaway

and girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
like the spanish city to me when we were kids
oh girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
like the spanish city to me when we were kids

she took off a silver locket she said remember me by this
she put her hand in my pocket I got a keepsake and a kiss
and in the roar of the dust and diesel I stood and watched her walk away
I could have caught up with her easy enough but something must have made me
stay

and the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
and I'm just high on the world
come on and take a low ride with me girl
on the tunnel of love

and now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades
searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades
in any shooting gallery where promises are made
to rockaway rockaway from cullercoats and whitley bay out to rockaway

and girl it looks so pretty to me like it always did
like the spanish city to me when we were kids
girl it looks so pretty to me like it always did
like the spanish city to me when we were kids

1. Is that the lack of sleep talking?

[BigMcLargehuge]

2. nah, just a rough weekend with the kids

but I am feeling the love today and wanted to share.

[JimmyJazz]

3. Aw - you two are so cute! and stunning on your wedding day!

:loveya:

[BigMcLargehuge]

4. gonna be 10 years ago this September

:)

[JimmyJazz]

5. The 16th?

[BigMcLargehuge]

6. 30th

[Midlodemocrat]

9. That is my anniversary, too!

It will be 16 years this September. And they said it wouldn't last.

[BigMcLargehuge]

11. I am not surprised we are making it to 10

We've had our share of roller coaster time. But I am too stubborn a portagee to give up on something as hard as marriage. I love her more now than I ever did I think.

[Midlodemocrat]

13. That is so sweet!

I feel the same way about my hubby. We have so many friends who are divorcing, splitting and we just wouldn't even consider it. Too much invested. Plus, I don't think I could ever love someone else as much as I love him.

[BigMcLargehuge]

14. even when things were as bad between us as they could get

I still couldn't imagine waking up in the morning and her not being there.

[CottonBear]

7. I like your horse. What's its name?

(Cute kid too!)

[BigMcLargehuge]

8. registered name "Fast Wrap"

everyday name "Dallas"

AKA

Grass shark
Tall brown and fuzzy
paddock potato

[CottonBear]

10. LOL! I hadn't heard of those names!

My horse is also known as the "hay burner" and the "Cotton Bear"!

I love grass shark! Very cute.

[BigMcLargehuge]

12. She's 22 and LOVES Ian

she follows him around the paddock like a puppy whenever he is out there.

[CottonBear]

19. 22 years old! It's so great that she's good with little Ian.

My filly is not quite 2 years old. I can't even ride her until she's 4. I hope that she will live a long life like Dallas. I want us to be old ladies together!

[BigMcLargehuge]

21. here's the most recent picture I have

[CottonBear]

25. Aw! He's so cute in his Baker plaid blanket!

What a handsome boy he is! You are a lucky family to have such a nice horse!

My filly, Cottton, enjoyed the nice spring weather here in GA today.

I tok her rain sheet off and she rolled and sunbathed all morning.

She was wonderfully muddy and happy when I came to feed her tonight.

She will be 2 on May 4 and she's already wearing a 72" rain sheet!

Her sire is 17H and her dam is 15.2H. I hope that she will be 16H but not too much bigger. They are wonderful creatures. I am never so happy as when I'm with my Cotton filly. (She's an Oldenburg.)

15. I sure do love that song...

thank you very sincerely for the earworm, Sir.

[BigMcLargehuge]

16. pleasure is mine

love to share good earworms... Skateaway has been mine for the last week...

I just bought three tracks from that album from iTunes and am in Dire Straits heaven right now.

[redqueen]

23. Yeah that's a great one as well...

then again I'm a Knopfler addict so I love just about anything the man's ever done. :)

[Magrittes Pipe]

17. How the hell did YOU land such a looker?

And you're a Dire Straits fan, to boot. I can't believe you're not a virgin. :7

[BigMcLargehuge]

18. lots of luck ;)

I knew i was going to marry her the second I was introduced to her in college.

[Magrittes Pipe]

20. Did you buy her from overseas, or something?

Just kidding, bro. Good on you. ;)

And, even though I'll deny it if you try to spread the vile rumor around, I do kinda like Making Movies.

[BigMcLargehuge]

22. i won't spread it (much...)

actually, we met overseas. I was a student at New England College in Arundel, West Sussex and she was a student at the American campus who came to NEC Arundel for a semester. Weirdly, we were born and raised only about 120 miles from each other.

Sometimes you have to cross an ocean to find home.

24. kick for the evening romantics
