I'm out of town this weekend, driving over to my parents' home on the east coast of Florida. My folks have been married 50 years! Can you believe it?
And here I thought I deserved a medal for 25 years.
Seriously--the other day I told someone I'd been married 25 years and they gasped. Not because I don't look like I've been married that long, but because in today's marital climate, that seems like a looooooong time.
And so it is. But 50 years is half a century. My mom was seventeen when they married, my dad 20, so they've been married most of their lives!
Happy anniversary, M&D. Thanks for paving the way.

Congrats to your folks! That is wonderful to hear...thanks for sharing.
I think when you see "celebrities" that change marriages faster than a new season begins. I think in this day and age when a couple makes it five years it is a cause for rejoicing. There is an assault on marriage unparalled.
