The Office: Forever in our Hearts
Wedding season is upon us. It’s truly a glorious celebration of love and unity, accented with those very special “clickable” moments (more on this later). A wedding is the opportunity for a couple to declare their love to the world. It has struck me as perfectly fitting that the scheduling for the finale of sitcoms happens during this time of the year, especially since one of the great shows of the past nine years is turning off its lights and locking its doors for the last time.
The shenanigans of Dunder Mifflin will no longer be broadcast into the homes of millions of entertained fans. However, this post is not the final goodbye, as the series finale is tomorrow evening at 8:00 p.m. on NBC. Instead, this is a seasonal remembrance of one of the best scenes from the “The Office.”
Jim & Pam’s Wedding provided several “clickable” moments, meaning those times when the love of your life does something that deserves to be cherished and never forgotten. An example would be when the groom cuts off half his tie so his bride doesn’t feel awkward walking down the aisle with a partly torn veil.

Or how about when their co-workers, who constantly bring the couple stress, surprise them with a spectacular dance routine to show how genuinely happy they are that their office romance has blossomed into a marriage and a new life together.

Happy 36th Wedding Anniversary Mom & Dad!!
Thirty-six years ago today, my parents, Robert and Deborah, stood at the altar in St. Monica’s Parish in Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin and declared their everlasting love to themselves, to their guests, as well as to the world.
Equipped with three children of their own, who are grown, they now play the part of grandparents to a strapping young lad in Garrett and a sweet darling in Ella. Having already survived three rounds (if you meet us, their kids, you’ll understand), they have been surprisingly anxious for rounds 4, 5 and beyond.
All we can say is, “God Bless Them!”
Plus a few other things…
They have loved us forever and have learned to survive,
especially when each of us started to drive
They have taken us to places all around this great world, including a few bars,
and maybe, someday, we’ll go to outer space with its infinite stars
From tests to plays to sporting events,
they helped with them all, which taught us what it means to be a Lentz
Through it all the past 36 years, they’ve been the best,
they are the best couple, that we’ll all firmly attest!
Now, it’s time to get down with your bad selves!!!
