30 Years and Still in Love


Today my parents have been married for 30 years!  I just wanted to let them know that for the past 22 1/2 years of those 30 years they have been a great example to me of what a true marriage should be.  They have taught me a lot, mainly just by their example.  Some of the most impacting things they taught me from their marriage are: the importance of having a date night once a week to get time alone to reconnect, going to the temple together often (even when it was 1 1/2 hours away they still always made it at least once a month), getting away together, and not being too proud to still hold hands and kiss in public! Thanks for being the best parents ever! We love you lots and hope you have a wonderful anniversary! If we were there we would take you to golden spoon and jamba juice :) .  Can't wait to see you in a few months!
