"27 years ago, this guy promised me a life full of adventure. I'd say he's delivered. Here's to our next chapter of becoming empty nesters and discovering what's next -- while still feeling the magic that brought us together all those years ago. Happy anniversary, Barack," she captioned the image.

The couple got engaged in 1991 and soon got hitched on October 3, 1992, in Chicago, reported CNN. They are proud parents to two daughters -- Malia Ann Obama and Sasha Obama.
