10 years ago on a Sunday afternoon in 1998, Terri and I were married. How do you mark 10 years? It is not an insignificant amount of time, yet to old pros like the senior Brocks and Tocksteins it must seem like amateur night!
Still, much has happened with us in the last decade...
Our first "child", our dog Wallace, joined us in May of 1998. He is still with us, enjoying his retirement in Florida.
We moved to Nashville from Knoxville in 1998, and then from Nashville to Clearwater, FL in 2001.
My Mom was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2000, was treated, and has been cancer free for 8 years.

Terri and I both lost a pair of Grandparents in 2005 and 2006 (Grandma and Grandpa Wood and Grandma and Grandpa Tockstein). Grandma Brock is still here, and is busier than most of us young people.
In 2003, Terri rescued a kitten next to a dumpster, named him Legs, and brought him to live with us. Our carpet and furniture have never recovered!
My sister Julie was married to her boyfriend Chuck in 2003.
We bought our first home in 2003.
Three new "Star Wars" movies were released!
And of course the biggest highlight of all, on November 6, 2006, we were joined by Hanna Caroline Tockstein.
So we've had a good 10 years. Here's hoping the next 4 or 5 decades are just as good.
