Memorial day / 41 years married...

see or notice that guy on the left, whose wife obviously didn't iron his shirt...he is holding his wife's purse (wow, it matches his shirt) so she can take a picture of him...while he says for the 1,000th time: "why do you want a picture of me?"
well, it's because i still love him after 41 years, today...and since it is memorial day...i might add here that he served in viet nam...coming back to his young wife a changed man...a wife who loves him more than that very day!
i thank all the men and women who have sacrificed their lives for us, i thank them every day!

  7. What a handsome guy!! And what great taste he has in women!

    I love this photo. And I am always very thankful for our military. I'm so glad he came home safely. I've read a lot about the Viet Nam conflict over the years and it makes me even more thankful.

    Congrats on your anniversary!
