Barack and Michelle Obama celebrated their 30th anniversary on Monday with heartfelt messages and personal photos.

The 44th president, 61, shared a sweet carousel of memories on Instagram, including a photo of himself resting his head on Michelle's shoulder while at the beach, their names engraved in a heart in the sand, and a black-and-white wedding photo.

Affectionately calling his wife "Miche," he wrote in the caption, "After 30 years, I'm not sure why you look exactly the same and I don't. I do know that I won the lottery that day—that I couldn't have asked for a better life partner. Happy anniversary, sweetheart!"

Mrs. Obama, 58, also showed love to her partner on their momentous day, and tweeted, "Happy anniversary to the man I love! These last 30 years have been an adventure, and I'm grateful to have you by my side. Here's to a lifetime together. I love you @BarackObama," along with heart emojis. She also included side-by-side photos of them during a beach day and on their wedding day.

1. I found out a few years ago President Obama and I are cousins.

We share the same 12 or 13th great grandfather on our mothers’ side. I was so overjoyed to learn this from a relative you does genealogy. However, I’ve yet to make it to the family reunion guest list 😬
