Happy anniversary, Mom & Dad!

16 08 2021

They’ve been married for 52 years today, but they’ve been together since they were teenagers, showing horses in regional shows in northwestern Ohio. Lots of years, lots of miles, lots of states and one foreign country – and that’s just where we lived. Uncle Sam sent them all over the country and my dad to a few other countries (as a family, we lived in Germany). We almost always had horses – or access to them – and since Dad’s retirement from the Army, they’ve had horses and cattle in Texas.

They’ve been partners through it all, working together for their family, their animals, their neighbors, their community.

I can’t wait to see them at the end of the month, when they travel to Colorado for a little relief from the Texas heat! πŸ™‚

Happy anniversary, Mom and Dad! I love you both!
