Our Golden Wedding
This is the music we opened the dancing with at our wedding. Listen here.
Oh how the time has passed. Well done, you (s) :) Have a look at my 1970 wedding dress... it was almost identical to your wife's. https://melbourneblogger.blogspot.com/2014/08/marriage-la-1970.html
I hope you derive much pleasure from all those handsome grandchildren. After all, that is our role in life - to raise clean, happy, healthy, loving and successful children and grandchildren.
Congratulations to you both and then of course to the next generation ... what lovely photos ... wonderful to see - while the Youtube clip is quite delightful - a great visual of life as it goes. Congratulations all round ... enjoy the years to come ... cheers Hilary
Congratulations, Bazza. So young in your wedding picture and how quickly fifty years go by. You have a beautiful family and I know that you are very proud of each and every one. Milestones are to be celebrated and how lucky you both are to be surrounded by all that love.
Hels: Thank you. You and Leah were obviously both in the vanguard of high fashion! The pleasure we get from our grandchildren is enormous. As the old cliche goes: "If we had known how much joy our grandchildren would bring, we would have had them first!"
Hello Bazza, Congratulations on this big anniversary. I loved all the photos, both the old and the new. I hope that soon you'll be having even more fun with some great-grandchildren. --Jim
Jim: Thank you very much. The twins, Jacob and Zack will be 17 on Christmas Eve, Sonny is 14 and Lois will be 12 next week. My money is on Lois to provide the first great-grandchild!
Hi again, I wasn't intending to rush things--your grandchildren just seemed a little older in the photo. All in good time! At least you have something to look forward to. --Jim

Hilary: Thank you. We do love being with our family. At present we have told our daughters that we are busy spending their inheritance!
ReplyDeleteArleen: Thank you. I made a speech at our celebration and said that love comes from a bottomless pit - there'a always enough to go round for one more!

ReplyDeleteHAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! Fifty years sure does fly by, doesn't it? Let's hope we all make it to our 75th. (That's always been my goal...)

ReplyDeleteSusan: Thank you. Aim high, why don't you! I've been told I had better behave or we won't get to 51!
ReplyDeleteJim: It's all out of our hands!
