40 years ago yesterday, I married my college sweetheart and we started this great adventure. It still doesn't seem possible that 40 years have gone by. I think this picture has faded a little, but that powder blue tux still looks pretty good - gotta love the 70's!!
You can see the cake topper, it's filled with freshly cut lilacs picked that morning from my backyard. Lilacs are one of the things I miss most about living in Rochester.
But I still have the cake topper, and I bought some silk lilacs many years ago to remind me.
This is the most recent picture of our family taken last Thanksgiving.
Since this was taken, we found out we have a new baby due in July. Karis will have a baby brother named Jack. We can't wait.
I am very blessed.
Have a wonderful Memorial Day as we remember those that gave all.
Karen

Your wedding photo is so wonderful and how fun to still have the cake topper.

Congratulations on your anniversary...we celebrated our 40th in March. I remember those powder blue tuxes...the yellow ones were "gorgeous" too! My husband got to wear both colors for freinds' weddings in the 70's.
Happy anniversary! You both look great, then and NOW! My hubby wore the powder blue in his best friends wedding, but wore a white one in ours. Black is just too boring! LOL. May you have many more anniversaries. Congratulations on the coming baby!
