NBA superstar Magic Johnson married his wife Cookie 28 years ago, and the couple is still going strong to this day. They sent sweet messages over social media to each other to celebrate.

Cookie and Magic went out with friends to celebrate their anniversary at Tao Restaurant. It seems all the major sports were represented because joining them was former baseball player Dave Winfield and his wife Tonya Turner, and former football player Rodney Peete and his wife Holly Robinson Peete. The group enjoyed a special gold and brown cake with the words "Happy Anniversary Earvin & Cookie" written in icing.

Magic (born Earvin Johnson) also posted a sweet Instagram slideshow dedicated to Cookie. He sweetly revealed that he knew after just three months of dating that she was the one he was going to marry. He even told his parents! Now, after a busy basketball career and health problems, the couple has overcome a lot of tough times and Magic said: "...by far, marrying you was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made."

"The job you’ve done as a mother, and now a grandmother, has been an honor to witness and I am so proud to call you my wife," he continued in his post. "I look forward to many more years together. I love you dearly… Happy Anniversary!"

Magic also shared a throwback photo with a compliment captioned beneath, "Baby, I must say, you look as stunning today as you did when I met you at 18. 😍" which he included in a slideshow of the pair at their birthday bash this year.

The birthday party was an all-out extravaganza in St. Tropez celebrating both Magic and Cookie's big 60th year in early September. The party was attended by A-listers like Spike Lee, Chris Tucker, and Angela Bassett reports People.

Cookie also sent Magic an adorable response on her Instagram calling him "the ultimate romantic" who manages to surprise her and keep her on her toes. She continued to say:

"...I couldn’t ask for anything more; ours is an undying love that is hard to describe but is uniquely ours because God is all in it, and I love every minute of it. I love you so much, here’s to many many more."
