Anniversary Thank You

Mike and I are celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary today. March 23 1974 we were married in Jackson Michigan.  As many of you have heard me say it was the wedding that my mother never had as she was married during WWII.  It was a struggle as a young woman for me to allow her to "do it all" but my husband to be gave me the first of many tidbits of good advice...Let her do it if it is going to make her happy..its a gift you can give her.  He was so right.  My parents talked about our wedding with such joy over the years that I am so glad I took Mikes advice.
I remember when Mom and Dad celebrated their 40th...May 22,1983..just after their second grandson, Timothy was born.  They did not want a big party but did want to be with family.  It is a tradition that I was so glad to continue with our week of vacation in Florida with the kids and grand kids.
Mike and I have spent a quiet day together first at the cabin this morning and now in Traverse City.  We are going out to dinner but wanted to send our a blog of thanks.
We could not of lasted for 40 years without the support and love of our family and friends.  We feels so lucky.   Thanks You   Kathy and Michael
