Fifty-One

years ago yesterday, my parents married! Happy Anniversary to my wonderful mother and father. (I was too busy being annoyed with my own darling husband yesterday to post about the joy of marriage, so I'm a day late!)

Aren't my parents so cute?

They were so young, but they stuck!

In honor of my parents and their long marriage, I thought I would share some marriage quotes with you!

"The heart of marriage is memories."

~Bill Cosby

"Marriage should be a duet - when one sings, the other claps."

~Joe Murray

"Sexiness wears thin after a while and beauty fades, but to be married to a man who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that's a real treat."

~Joanne Woodward

"A successful marriage is an edifice that must be rebuilt every day."

~Andre Maurois

"How sweet is the assurance, how comforting is the peace that come from the knowledge that if we marry right and live right, our relationship will continue, notwithstanding the certainty of death and the passage of time. Men may write love songs and sing them. They may yearn and hope and dream. But all of this will be only a romantic longing unless there is an exercise of authority that transcends the powers of time and death."

~Gordon B. Hinckley

Happy Anniversary Dad and Mom! May you have many more years of happiness together and with all of us! Love you lots!
