January 6th has always been a date to remember, and for as long as I can remember I've remembered to honor this day in some way. However, as the years go by specific dates and memories of my parents seem to need a memory boosting hint. Such was the case today. It's one of those Sundays that dates and calendars are not on the forefront. So, I almost missed what would be their 72nd Wedding Anniversary on this day.
Theirs is a 'Love Story' I've often told here on CollectInTexas Gal and on Tracks of my Texas Ancestors. You can read it HERE. These scrapbook pages are wonderful reminders with photos from Mother's original 1940's scrapbook. I did a complete restoration of that scrapbook in 2014 to preserve and ensure that her memories would become 'Memories for Generations' to come.
I'm glad I finally looked at the date today while browsing through files on my PC. My heart is filled with loving memories of a lifelong loving couple whose marriage continues to be a model for my own.
I know you will receive this Anniversary Wish before the days end since it's being delivered straight away right up to 'The Cloud'....no envelope and no stamp...just the click of a 'Publish Button'.
Happy 72nd Anniversary Mom and Dad in Heaven!
nifty pics and Happy Anniversary to the cloud scrapbook.
