XOXOXOXO...AMY...XOXOXOXO
ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS
HAPPY 56TH WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY
MOTHER AND DADDY
MOTHER AND DADDY NEVER
FORGOT TO CELEBRATE
THEIR
ANNIVERSARY.
HE ALWAYS BOUGHT HER
ROSES, A CARD,
AND JEWELRY.
IF SHE WAS NOT WORKING
SHE COOKED HIM HIS
FAVORITE MEAL, GAVE
HIM A CARD,
AND SOME THING HE WANTED
IN THE WAY OF FISHING OR
TOOLS.
WHEN SHE HAD TO WORK, SHE
ALWAYS COOKED HIM HIS
FAVORITE MEAL ON HER
DAY OFF EITHER BEFORE
OR AFTER.
WHEN GRANDMA CHOATE WAS
ALIVE AND MOTHER WAS
RUNNING A FIRECRACKER STAND
WITH HER....
DADDY WOULD DRIVE THE
30 SOME MILES TO HENNESSEY
AND BRING MOTHER RED ROSES.
GRANDMA CHOATE ALWAYS MADE
FRIED CHICKEN, POTATO SALAD,
AND CORN ON THE COB.
ICE TEA IN A GLASS JAR.
OH GRANDMA'S CHICKEN WOULD
JUST MAKE YOUR TASTE BUDS
KEEP SCREAMING FOR MORE...
AND ONLY MY MOTHER CAN
COME CLOSE TO GRANDMA
CHOATE'S POTATO SALAD.
THE RED, WHITE, AND BLUE...
FOURTH OF JULY...
HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY
FAVORITE
CELEBRATION.
I LOVE IT.
IT STANDS FOR
FAMILY
TRADITION
CELEBRATION
FREEDOM
THE AMERICAN FLAG
HOME MADE ICE CREAM
LOUD BLACK CATS, HIGH-
PITCHED CHASERS, AND
LADY FINGERS
BELIEF
FAITH
AND ALL THE MEN AND
WOMEN WHO FOUGHT...
WHO HAVE DIED...
AND WHO STILL
BRAVELY DEFEND OUR
RIGHT
FOR FREEDOM.
MOTHER AND DADDY'S
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
IS TODAY
JULY 2, 2010.
56 YEARS
BRAVELY DEFENDING
EACH OTHER
THROUGH THE
HIGHS AND LOWS
LAUGHTER AND
THE TEARS
HEALTH AND
SICKNESS
RICH AND
POOR
UNCONDITIONAL
LOVE
OVER
SELFISHNESS
AND
TOLERANCE OF EACH
OTHERS
DIFFERENCES.
HAPPY 56TH
WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY
MOTHER
AND
DADDY.
MAY YOU BE BLESSED
WITH MANY MORE.
LOVE AND HUGS
SIMPLY DEBBIE

What a nice story and now a days it is so sweet to see true love linger....have a great holiday sister
Debbie,
What a beautiful post!! So loving!!
I am so sorry that I did not get back to you sooner to answer your question about my back yard gate. It goes to a steep hill that is between our row of townhouses and the one behind me. If i ever had to get out that way I would have to crawl on my hands and knees between trees that all the neighbors planted for privacy!! So the only access to our house is through our front door!!
Have a wonderful holiday weekend!!
Hugs,
Debbie

Happy Anniversary to your parents!
Thanks for the nice compliment on my header. Sorry the mosaic did not work out that I sent in March. I like the one you have now - looks great with your new look.
I have not decided where the birdcage is going just yet. If I can ever get some painting done, then maybe I can decide.
Have a great weekend and Happy 4th!
Congratulations to your parents on their anniversary. Thanks for visiting my blog and I sent you an email concerning your request for fabric postcard. If you don't receive it, please let me know.
