65 YEARS!!!

My Grandpa and Grandma just celebrated their 65th Anniversary on April 28th. Wow what an amazing accomplishment. How many couples will ever get a chance to celebrate 65 years of marriage. They are both amazing people and I know that it took many years of hard work, committment, dedication and of course friendship and love. I feel like there is so much that I can learn from them as a still relatively newly wed and it gives me lots of hope and encouragement for my marriage---especially during the rough times!



We got together at the Manor where my Grandpa is and shared coffee and some good times. I love watching my Grandparents with Zech. Most times when we go to visit my Grandpa he cries when he sees Zech. The whole entire time we are there Grandpa won't take his eyes off of Zech and Grandpa always imitates the sounds that Zech makes--it is quite entertaining. He doesn't really understand the relation and where Zech fits in, but we told him during one of our first visits that Zech is our "little Rueben" and for some reason that has always stuck and he remembers that! We bring him pictures to pin up on his bulletin board and one of the pictures fell down. Grandpa was quite upset and kept asking the nurses where his baby went. They found the picture on the floor and immediately pinned it back up for him.



Here are a few pictures from the due! (thanks Uncle Randy--I don't know where our cord is to download the pitctures off of our camera)
