And it seems that this time of the year brings back so many memories. It will be one year for my father on October 23rd. There is just something about our "daddies", isn't there?? <br />Your family is beautiful! I'll be checking back in. <br />Visit me at Ladybugcreek. I'm in the midst of a big redo on my home. New wood floors this week. I feel like I am moving back into my home again. lol<br />Karen<br />Ladybugcreek<br />Deep South TexasKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04323076493744748557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-64992028124661857342009-09-25T01:22:44.540-05:002009-09-25T01:22:44.540-05:00Dear LMB,

This post is a thoughtful tribute to your father's legacy. Your mom looks great (nowhere near her age!). <br /><br />If not for prompt medical attention, my family would have lost my dad a few weeks ago. Your post is a timely reminder of how fortunate I am to still have him (I called him this morning, and he's doing great!). <br /><br />I always appreciate your visits and kind remarks. Hope your weekend goes well!<br /><br />BillBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15467769804679511645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-24998107475429819262009-09-24T12:40:02.008-05:002009-09-24T12:40:02.008-05:00Amazingly beautiful post, Cindy.

It's so rare these days people make it to 50 years of marriage. These truly touched my heart. Both my folks are gone now and I miss them daily.

I bet it was hard for your Mom and family to leave such a great spot there on the river. That was a great idea to hold the anniversary on the paddleboat. I'll have to keep that in mind for my own parents. They are pushing on 54 years.
