48 Years!



Today is my parents' 48th wedding anniversary.  Individually, each of my parents is a good person.  Together, they are a great team.  They aren't exactly complete opposites, but they each definitely have their own personalities.  They complement each other well, and it is obvious that they love each other. Happy anniversary, Mom and Dad!
