They still have it!

When you have been married to the same person for fifty years, a blog post is in order.  When you have been married to the same person for fifty years, there is a reason to celebrate. 
They were the sweetest couple.  Very quiet and very humble.  I had so much fun and was so honored to have been asked to do this for them. 

You can almost see that young boy she fell in love with how many years ago? 

There's many years of stuff between these two.  Children, grand kids, parents.  Life.  And they are still holding on to each other and their Lord.  Both smiling and still happy.  Now that is what marriage is about.  Through good and bad.  And the way they talked, there had been both. 
He made the comment that he still found her as lovely now as he did then.  And I could tell it. 
Again, I count it a privilege to have been asked to do this for them.  I wish them the best as they start out on fifty more.
