65th Anniversary Party!

Bobby and I travelled back to Gurnee this weekend for a 65th anniversary reception for my Uncle Jay and Aunt Elaine - "Aunt Laney" to me and my siblings. Bobby and I had a great time driving over; Dan and some committments, so he and Vickie stayed home. I'll relate our travel adventures later, but this post belongs to Jay and Elaine.




I've never seen a 65th Anniversary cake before. There isn't much of a selection of greeting cards for that anniversary.

Here they are today - my mom's big brother and his wife:



And here they are 65 years ago:



Happy Anniversary, you guys!

Happy Anniversary to your Uncle Jay and Aunt Elaine!!

You got a great photo of the two of them! You've contrasted it beautifully with the older photo. They look like they're having a great time at the party! God bless them for staying around long enough to celebrate a 65th wedding anniverary.

Peggy, thanks! I took that old picture from one that they had at the reception. I'm surprised it came out at all...
