Fifty Years - Wow



Today is it - Aprill 11, 2008 - - this marks Marge and Wayne's 50th Wedding anniversary... Look how cute they are ...

Look at that cheezer on Marge's face. She totally looks like "Uh-huh that's right girls he is mine all mine, uh-huh uh-huh...

I have been feeling incredibly reminiscent as this day approached...

Here is my recent list of memory ramblings:


1. Lakeview Terrace baseball fields - never watching Randy and Mike's games, but wandering through the the wash looking for cool rocks or flowers.


2. Picking blackberries in Klammath trying to fill my bucket faster than Randy and always, always falling into the stickery blackberry bushes. Did Randy ever fall in the bushes??? Noooooo... he never did - - I guess that is why my Dad always called me Grace.


3. Surf fishing at the Mouth of the Klammath river (this memory HAD to follow the blackberry memory) and catching a tube worm. I was the hero of day...even Randy thought I was a hero. Who ever thinks their little sister is a hero?


4. The Grasshoppers. Man - - we played some mean softball. I think at season end I pitched for a record of 0-12. But damn I looked hot with my green sweatshirt and Mrs. Brady shag haircut. Wendy was the best catcher a crappy pitcher could ever hope for!


5. Marco Calvo - - furry, fuzzy, sexy Marco Calvo.... Dad yelling from his and Mom's bedroom "GOODNIGHT MARCO!"


6. Wendy trying to desperately teach me "The Hustle" right before my senior prom - - dancing to the BeeGees.... I still love you Andy!!!


7. Walking down the aisle at Sunland Neighborhood Church and Daddy saying "We can turn around right now Cindie..."


8. Watching my Mom's ever loving, ever tender care of my precious, precious Grandma. Right up to and including the time she passed away - - my Mom was with her. I will never, never forget, and will always admire, respect, and try with every last breath to emulate her.


9. Seeing Wayne chase Marge around at J'Amy's wedding. He was telling everyone how sexy she was... And 50 years later - Wayne still chases Marge around.


Happy Anniversary Mom and Daddy! Muah!
