Darn it!! I just realized that mimi and papa (my dad's parents') are not right (their picture that is). Oh well that really describes them.. I mean honestly the couple has been married for a gazillion years! We had a nice dinner at Italia Gardens in Davison and they were very sweet. They fed each other cake for crying out loud. They were all dressed up. Grandma even got her hair did. (as Jamie would say) The food was awesome and some of the older relatives shared stories growing up and visting my grandparents. They live on the lake and their place was happening growing up. I remember boating, picnics, bomb fires, ice skating, the tree house, reading every Dr. Suess book written (now the books are falling apart), every major holiday was spent there. They have a two sided fireplace that was so cozy to sit next to at Christmas time. When I sit next to mine, it reminds me of a simplier time when I was little. We spent alot of time at their house. Now there is another generation running the hallways and my kids' enjoy visiting too although we don't get out to Linden very often. Grace and Grandma Marcia (dad's wife) and Jamie and his Mom enjoying the afternoon. It was a nice time and everyone enjoyed themselves. I wish their wedding photo wasn't lopsided because it really is very beautiful.

Cute pictures. Your grandparents are adorable. Nothing is cozier than a fire in a fireplace. I agree.
A love that has lasted that long is remarkable these day and should be definitely celebrated. Congrats to your grandparents!
