Parents 60th wedding anniversary
Comments (5)Kristi, I have not been on line much in the past several months and wanted to say I keep you and your parents in my prayers. I hope things worked out and that life is a little less hectic for you. Sixty years is a wonderful milestone. My parents celebrated 53 years before my mother passed and then I took care of my father for the remaining 8 years he had and it was not easy as he had several strokes and died of cancer. You also know I took care of my husband for over 2 1/2 years. I think of you often and wish we lived closer. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you other than say I love you and send you a hug through cyber space, Linda...See MoreWhat a day for a 41st Wedding Anniversary!
Comments (7)Well, *I* certainly was not going to cry 'Uncle' first, for sure!!! However, ken's energy level was amazing, despite the incredible heat and humidity! Only disappointment was that he didn't have the mud-pit primed for us, by the end of the day! :o)) There WILL BE proof of the visit in the form of pix, but there are SO MANY I need to really take a rainy day to get them ready for 'publication'!!! I warned you--didn't I--that you better have eaten your 'Wheaties' for the tour!...See MoreMy oldest sister's 50th wedding anniversary. Ideas? Gift obligati
Comments (8)Great ideas, everyone! Pbrisjar, they wanted to have a BBQ at home too. Now they think it is at their daughter's house. She thinks they will freak out at the cost and they do not intend to tell them. She is letting them think that until a couple days before. They are not fancy, have buried both sets of parents and have more than they need. She's always trying to give stuff away (nieces, nephews, kids, etc.) She is my mother's daughter - "everything should be put to good use." They have a modest home in Mexico and modest home here. When they aren't in Mexico or here, they live on a boat in Canada. They would think flowers were a big waste of money. LOL! A cake may be nice because we all could enjoy but I'm hesitant to ask the restaurant to serve the cake. It's the kids' party and I don't want to seem like I'm taking over, YKWIM? If it was going to be at someone's house, I'd do a cake in a heartbeat. Great idea. As for this couple, they still drive the Toyota they bought (used) when the kids were young (it's immaculate). You could say they live life to the fullest, between their camper and boat, and two *very* modest homes. My sister cuts her hair every three months, so when she cuts it, she cuts it very, very short. :+" My sister thinks my house is fancy and it's always a work in progress.

Comments (12)Absolutely beautiful! And so unusual and appropriate. You do have some Japanese in there, Carole. The last two "letters" in the right-most line are "na" and "ru," which turn the previous two kanji characters (which mean happiness) into an adjective to modify the characters for marriage in the next line over. Japanese and Chinese share a lot of characters, but the "na" and "ru" are definitely only Japanese. In fact, the only part of the writing that might not be taken for Japanese is the first character in the right line, which, as you probably already know, means "celebrate." It would normally come in a different place and have one or two Japanese letters, such as a verb ending, with it. Still, it is perfectly understandable to a Japanese. What a wonderful gift you made!...See More
