Welcome everyone to a celebration.
Happy Anniversary
July 17, 1960 - July 17, 2012
Adding a new chapter to our love story with a delightful alfresco meal to celebrate another year of happiness
Dinner in the Fern Grotto
Our open air patio
Our favorite place to dine outside
This tablescape tells our story
and some of the stuff only boring old married people like us understand
That Friday night is actually the perfect time to go grocery shopping
That no one else can drive you crazy quite like the person you love most in the world.
That it's wonderful to have someone you can always lean on...and possibly fall asleep on.
That it's hard to beat waking up beside the person who's given you so many of the
best days of your life.
That "date night," Although a nice idea, bears little resemblance to an actual date.
That the ten-thousandth kiss, in its own quiet way, is just as sweet as the first.
That "for better or worse" really means
"for better or worse."
That love takes work.
And time.
A lifetime, to be exact.
The bountiful plates represent the fruits of our labor.
The gold napkin rings represent our gold wedding bands. The monogrammed napkins with the first letter of our last name Young helps us to remember that we will forever be "Young."
The golden flatware is a reminder of the times we have been true to our promise for richer or poorer.
The beautiful flowers are a reminder of the precious and beautiful things we have in life.
Wonderful children and granddaughters. A comfortable home and gardens.
and
We enjoy every new day!
'Lavender Tea'
Please enjoy some tea with a printable recipe
The amazing beauty of 'Roses'
The crystal glasses represents the clear path we have traveled through sickness and in health.
