December 28th, 1963 ("Late December back in 63", as Frankie Valli said, "What a lady, what a night.") My parents got married. So that means that today they have been married for...um..uhh...a lot of years.
I hope I can last that long without killing Honey in his sleep. Not that I've thought about it...just he snores and I can only take so much before I'm pushed to the edge you know what I'm sayin? You may not know William, but I bet your momma does. 43 years? She knows.
Thank you, William. Thank you all! Want to know how we spent our 43rd anniversary. We went to the funeral of the priest who married us. ( not a family member, but, sort of) He died on Christmas Eve. We then went to lunch with my husbands sister, then came home and napped for 31/2 hours. (we are old) Ate leftovers for dinner, watched t.v. in two separate rooms, and then went to bed. How's that for a "Happy" Anniversary? The nap was great! But the day was knda depressing. Today is another day and hopefully much brighter. (29th) More family Christmas visits to make and children to see. This should be a better day. Maybe tonight we'll celebrate!
Congratulations to your parents... 9 kids, 33 years... That's a lot of Love. And Commitment. I'm sure they've been through the fire and back. Amazing.
