Happy FORTIETH Anniversary Mom and Dad!


Today marks 40 years since the marriage/sealing of my parents. Inspirational, don't you agree? They fell in love a million years ago when they were 13 & 14. Now eleven children and 31+ grandchildren later, they are still each other's sweethearts for eternity! They are clearly a perfect match! I've always admired their relationship. I don't recall ever hearing them call each other by their first names--it's always been "Hon" (short for Honey), and they never part ways without a good-bye kiss. The simple things build a foundation for a solid marriage and I have taken note...a powerful example for me and my siblings.


Have a wonderful anniversary Mom and Dad
with many more happy years to come!
