September 27, 1975Photo: Favorite Uncle Paul
This is, by far, my favorite picture of all time. I recently posted it on Facebook and have gotten QUITE the reaction. Not only does my mother look GORGEOUS in this photo, but it's so descriptive of who my parents are as a couple.
My dad is normally the silly one - pestering mama by rearranging the light switches or saying things purposely to ruffle her feathers, and (the majority of the time), she laughs him off. Besides his amazing outfit (Christopher wants to borrow the platforms so he'll be taller than me), Daddy's expression is priceless. "Holy cow, what did I just get myself into?" And Mama just looks like she won the lottery. :-)
Mama and Daddy will be married almost 35 years when Christopher and I tie the knot. I can only dream of having a marriage like theirs. Not many people can love their parents the way I love mine -- hopefully we can be that to our children someday. :-)
