I am blessed...
I am blessed with the most amazing parents...
I am blessed to have amazing parents that taught me how to love and who to give my love too...
This past Saturday my parents Celebrated 50 Years of Marriage. Fifty Years guys...Gah how often to hear that! Amazing and makes me so proud.
When I was 4 years old my dad sold his limousine business in New York, loaded all six kids in the family station wagon and headed to Colorado. His dream was to be a farmer. So I grew up in the country surrounded by pigs and cows, dirt roads, my large family and the fresh country air.
My daddy worked hard, worked all day long and then came home and worked on the farm. I remember getting off the bus after school and running inside to see what my mom had made us after school...praying for her homemade cinnamon rolls...
But so glad to just see her face...
I don't think you ever outgrow your parents love..they are your parents. You never outgrow the home you grew up in...that is home and always will be.
Now that I am a mom and a wife I look back and think about what my parents have taught me. They taught me to be a hard worker. To be kind and loving to others. To never give up and always do your best.
Hugs...lots and lots of hugs...and to always say I love you.
Maybe that is why I love photography so much. Maybe that is why I giggle and laugh at sessions and always end it with a hug...yes I hug :)
Maybe that is why I am a sucker for a great love story and couples that seriously can't keep there hands of each other. Intimate weddings where you can feel the love. I live for those.
So when I look at my parents on there wedding day I can't help but smile. They are the most amazing people I know and I can't even begin to tell you how grateful I am that they are my parents.
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad I love you both so much.
