That's how long my parents have been married. Sixty years. Today.
I was talking with my dad last week and asked him if he had a recent picture of the two of them for me to submit to the newspaper. He told me that indeed he did have one. But after asking a few details I found out that the most recent photo that he has was taken 14 years ago! He thought that would be fine. To me, that wasn't good enough. So I made them pose for me at my nephew's reception last weekend. I am proud to say....this is how my parents look after 60 years of marriage - happy, content, in love. And don't you think they look young?!
Their marriage has been a good one. I have never once seen nor heard my parents argue, quarrel, or exchange harsh words with each other......"That's because we never, ever have," my mom will tell me. It's true. A match made in heaven. Two peas in a pod. Soul-mates.
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, Sam and Maryloo!

Happy Anniversary Sam and Maryloo! What a wonderful thing to celebrate. They do look young!
Your parents look awesome. What a love story. I can't believe they have never argued, quarreled, etc. What a concept! That's so amazing. Congratulations to them, they're darling.
