My parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on Saturday, July 9th. We had a wonderful celebration with family members and some of their new and old friends. We had lovely food and music (jazz piano and drums), and speeches by their immediate family members (even one by their grandchildren)...and a very handsome and charming emcee (I'm married to him).
Nadine was responsible for the gorgeous decorations. I prepared
a slide show with a retrospective of their 50 years together:
