Mom & Dad's Anniversary

62 years ago today Mom and Dad were married in the Salt Lake Temple.  Their wedding reception was at the Garden Park Ward - the happening place at that time.

Mom's dress was beautiful - Dad was handsome in his Tux.  My grandparents looked amazing.  The entire wedding party looked wonderful!

They had eight great kids....and now have a posterity totalling almost 60 with many more to come.  They taught us right from wrong  - they knew when to push and when to hold back - they held their tongue when they needed to.  Dad would always send Mom roses on their anniversary.  On her birthday, he would go to the Tall Shop (yes she was tall) and the women there would help him choose the latest fashions for her.  Mom made sure they looked good when they went out - usually with coordinated outfits. 


Mom and Dad are a great story....Today if you were to talk to Dad about Mom he would get tears in her eyes - he loves and misses her so much.  They were a couple! 

Even though Mom left us two years ago, we are together forever as a family!
