40 Years and Counting!

I am so proud of my parents! Not many people can say their parents have been married 40 years, but I can! August 24, 1968 my mom and dad said "I DO" and they are still going strong! We celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary on Sat. August 23rd. We went to John Paul's for dinner. Robbie, McKenzie, Momma, Daddy and I met Scott and Missi for dinner and had a very good time. The Wednesday before their anniversary I put their wedding picture in the paper with a little poem about their marriage. It was so funny because Momma and Daddy did not know I was going to put that in the paper. Momma had a Dr appt so I was looking at the paper and I said to her, "Momma look, Preston and his wife have been married for 22 years" and she was looking over at the paper and said "You know I was thinking about giving you a picture of Daddy and me to put in the ...." and about that time she saw the picture I had put in there. She grabbed the paper and read the poem. Big tears came up in her eyes and she said "Thank you so much for this." They have had their ups and down but have stayed together through it all. HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY MOMMA AND DADDY! I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW!
