Secondly, I wanted to say that September has a lot of sentimental value for me and I thought it was important for me to share with everyone why....
My parents celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on September 15th and my grandparents would have celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary today!
As a child, I always wanted to get married in September, (P.s I am wearing my mom's wedding dress in this picture.... I think I was 9years old?)
and I even wanted to get married in 2004..... I know a little over anxious..... but here is why.
My grandma was born in 1935 and my mom born in 1955 then I was born in 1985..... 20 years between my mom and grandma and thirty between my mom and I.
So.... it continues.... my Grandparents got married in 1954 and my parents in 1984.... so naturally, I either wanted to get married in 2004 or 2014 and since I realized that 2014 would be tooooooo far away, I thought 2004 would be just fine! ha That would have put me married right after high school and since my high school crush didn't really work out the way I wanted it to... I knew my 2004 dream was out the window.
Even though, I didn't get married in 2004, I'm not getting married in 2014, and my wedding isn't in September, I still love this month. It will always be special to me and maybe I can start a November tradition with my daughter. :)
Anyway, I just wanted to dedicate a blog to my grandparents and the day that would
have been their 55th wedding anniversary! I love you grandma and miss you very much!
This picture is so special to me!! I actually almost cried when I saw it! My grandma gave my papa this watch as his wedding day present and he has treasured it for 55 years! He always talks so highly of this watch! So sweet! My grandpa is really a wonderful man! He was so in love with my grandma! Gosh how adorable!
And this last picture just melts my heart! They look so happy to start their lives together!
I am so blessed to have them as my grandparents. They leave a wonderful legacy for me to follow.
