A Love Story ...


I was looking through Dad's old photo album when this beautiful old Valentine card fell out.

Oral Jr.
from
Aunt Pearl, Uncle George
(Received while in the 4th grade)


But there is another reason I wanted to post a card today ...
There is a very special online couple who are celebrating today --
56 years of marriage!

Congratulations to Abe Lincoln and his beautiful wife Patty.

I appreciate them so very much -- they are both an inspiration to me!
Blogland wouldn't be the same without them!

Note: I would not have found this beautiful card had it not been for Al's "Sunday Scans"! Come on over and join us - and show us what you have scanned lately!

That's a much fancier 4th-grade valentines card than we see these days. And congratulations to Abe and Patty!

Sweet card. July 12th is also my parents wedding anniversary. Funny coincidence!
