This was the best day

My daughter and son-in-law

are celebrating their anniversary today.

I cannot believe it's already been 26 years!

Yes - 26 years ago,

we were in Anchorage, Alaska,

gettin' it done!

The three of us stayed at a B&B

and I remember her being soooooooo

protective of her wedding dress.

"Be careful."

"Don't step on it."

And it went on and on and on and on.

Well, they married,

had a brief little celebration at a parishioner's home

and then out to dinner.

I dropped them off at the hotel,

kept the car and went back to our B&B.

In the morning when I picked them up

and they came out,

she had her wedding dress

all rolled up in a ball and under her arm

as if she was carrying a football.

It really was THE BEST DAY.

Happy anniversary, you two!
