60th Wedding Anniversary

March of this year saw my parents' 60 wedding anniversary take place. Now in this day and age when a couple reaches 60 years of marriage, well, it's rare. The party took place at a country club which was very nice except for the dead bird on the decking.

I saw cousins that I hadn't seen in over 30 years,I'm the eldest of 9, sadly one of them passed several years ago from cancer.

Here are some photos that I took.
