Happy Anniversary

Today is my parent’s wedding anniversary.

They were married in 1961 in the parsonage of Waynesville’s First United Methodist Church. 

Here they are on their way to church right before they married. My mom was barely 18. They look so classy and elegant. 

Of course my daddy was the cutest guy around…

…and my mom the most beautiful.

My brother and I are blessed beyond belief. 

They are both truly amazing, talented, unselfish, hard working and most importantly, wonderful Christian examples.

I could not love them more:-)

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!!

    And they certainly raised a fine daughter! This tribute made me cry, Anita… In a good way. 🙂

    February was my parents' anniversary, too, and I did a tribute to them on my blog. I miss them every day of my life.

    I think how blessed we were to have Christian parents who loved each other and us,, and I thank God every day for that and for the fact that I will see them again some day and never have to part from them again. What a love gift from The Lord!

    Happy Anniversary to your beautiful biscuit making mama and her handsome husband! (I pinned her making biscuits so that's what I think of when I see that picture at the end. ) In the other pictures, especially one of them, she looks exactly like YOU.
