40 Years Together

Today we celebrated Byron's parent's 40th Wedding Anniversary. They were married on July 29th, 1967. We had a small family get-together in Meadville at their request. Byron wanted to invite anyone ever associated with the family!!! LOL We told them that for their 50th we will be having a nice dinner in an air conditioned building!!!! Here's some pictures of the happy couple.

See what she thought of the celebration we threw for her!!! (just kidding)

Once again after a year of weightlifting and practice Benjamin takes on Byron. One of these years he will do it!!!

40 yrs ago, on the morning of his sister's wedding, Mary Lou's brother, Dave walked through the woods and collected wildflowers to decorate the church. Today, Dave's daughter Dawn, who was the flower girl 40 years a go, did an excellent job of recreating the memory. Thanks, Dawn!

P.S. The celebration was given for them by their children, Byron (and me, his wife) and Bethany.
