A Celebration of Love

Our anniversary is approaching and we are finding ourselves reflecting on the people that taught us how to have a loving, devoted marriage - our parents. As my parents celebrated their 34Th anniversary last week, and as Sam's parents get ready to celebrate their 37Th in July we are reminded of what amazing marriages they each have and all they we can learn from them. We are both so lucky to have such amazing families and cherish them each so much. We also found some fun pictures that show us how it all began!!! (Its funny how we sit here and laugh about what our parents looked like and what they wore when they were our age; when I stop to think though, its not so funny b/c our kids will be doing the exact thing someday!!!)

Thomas - June 8Th - 34 years

Mom and Dad, you have taught me what it means to have a devoted marriage. It is apparent how you are constantly thinking of the other person in all situations. I also love how you do everything together and still live such a fun, active life. You have taught us that no matter how long you have been married that you can still have a blast with your best friend. I only hope that when we are married for 34 years that we are having as much fun together as you are!!! I love you both so very much and thank you for teaching me how to be a loving wife....we're only 32 years behind you guys!!!

We would also like to take the time to congratulate Nan and Gramps Sessler on 60 years of marriage!!! They just celebrated their 60Th year on June 1st!! You are a living testimony of how to love your spouse! It has been fun to see you too around each other and see how much you love each other. Even after 60 years, you both still adore each other, and it is easy to see! We respect you both so much as you are an example to all of us. We love you!
