Love is.........

50 years ago two people celebrated their love for one another and were married January 28, 1962.  

And on January 28, 2012,  in their church, hundreds of family and friends gathered to help them celebrate

  50 years of marriage.

It was an incredible evening..... they renewed their vows, they danced, there was some wonderful surprise guests,  there were some great stories told and there were performances and talented gifts given by family members and even video clips of those who couldn't be there in person.  It was an amazing evening filled with a lot of love and family - and I would say friends, but at one point in the evening it was clear that we were all family.

The Bride & Groom (again)

Their dance and cutting the cake

Are you ready for this next picture?....I am not sure you are.......It is really awesome!.....

Their original Matron of Honor and Best Man stood up with them again 50 years later!  

How great is that???

The Wedding Party - 50 years later!

Their family worked so hard to pull off an incredible evening.  So I had to include this picture and little shout out to the gang that worked hard for many, many, many months to pull off a flawless evening of fun and family memories that will never be forgotten.  Awesome job, guys!!!

The Bride & Groom with their kids and grandkids

There are many more pictures of  Grand kids, Great -Grand kids, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, friends that are now family.....etc.  This is just little sneak peak of an evening that has touched my heart and I will remember for the rest of my life.  Love you all! Thanks for letting me be a part of this wonderful evening.
