Sixty-five years

Yesterday was my parents' anniversary. They got married in 1950, raised five kids together, and created a loving, tight-knit family. That's some commitment. And they still face life's challenges with unity and a good sense of humor. After they went out for a celebratory lunch, my father said to my mother, "Sixty-five years ago, who would have thought...that we'd have to pay that much for lunch."

That's quite rare still these days even though we are living longer. God Bless them both.

Very cool Dave. My parents will hit 64 years in July. Heck of an accomplishment and a great goal. I've got a shot if I can make it to 89 (if SWMBO allows me to live that long... :whistle: )

Congrats to them!

Congratulations to them Dave!

My parents "only" made it to 63 before my Dad passed in 2008.

I'm raising my glass to them now! :cheers:
