My wife always rolls her eyes when I say my job is being a Trophy-Husband, but this is me and Mrs OreCart.

Yeah I had two Maine wives, so I figured I had better import the third one...all the way from New Hampshire! (LOL)

I told her it is better for me to be a Trophy-Husband though then for her to tell everyone I am a farmer. I mean we all know that a farmer does his best work with a hoe, and really...what does that say about my wife? We do have four kids after all! (LOL)

I see your treasure. She is standing right next to you. Thanks for the pics!

Awww thanks, I liked how you put that!

She is a good honest woman, great mother to our (4) daughters, great wife, and being a Christian, we have the deepest conversations. With my cancer right now, she is really carrying the family in terms of breadwinning and keeping the home functioning.

Definitely a treasure better than gold (but I still would not mind finding a little). :-)

And she has a great taste in shoes...because they glitter! What prospecting Trophy-Husband would not like that? :-)

I am not sure where she got these, she belongs to (3) shoe-of-the-month clubs after all (yes, there is such a thing), but this particular pair of shoes changes color in the light from Gold to Silver or back again. In total Katie has some 84 pairs of shoes.

What kind of detector did you find her with? It must have been with a long range locator!

It sure was, a detector of 175 miles!

I married (2) Maine woman, but after they did not work out (10 years and 6 years of marriage), I figured I had better "import" the third one. She came all the way from...New Hampshire! So naturally my pet name for her is "import".

The detector I used for her was Christian Mingle...

She is pretty sweet girl though.

On another forum, the guys there helped me hook up a boiler I had, and knowing Katie is cute, asked me to "take a picture of the boiler and Katie so they could see which one was better looking."

I asked Katie and she said she would, and put on her little red dress for some photos. I thought that was petty bold of her because she knew her pictures would be online, but then again she wears this dress while out on dates with me too, so its not like she will not wear it in public.
