A Reason To Celebrate

Over a week ago I had the privilege of documenting a historic moment. It was the 80th Birthday/60th wedding anniversary celebration of a lovely couple. Their children planned a big surprise bash at their home and it was a surprise like none other. What a thrill to be a part of such a memorable occasion.

I began my evening at the farm looking through the display of pictures from the past. Their wedding, family portraits, black and whites of them in their bathing suits on the lake back in their 20's, new babies in their arms....and now here they are 60 years later with the people they love the most surrounding them. What a blessing! I imagined Wes and I at our 60th anniversary party. That would be 2065. I think that would make me 88 and Wes a young 86. A bit hard to imagine isn't it? But what a journey love takes you on.

I begin this post with a few of the Bride and Groom at their home that they love so much.







The whole crew!



A few favorite family shots.







The Love has been passed on!
