Today is my Mom and Dad’s 30th Wedding Anniversary. 30 years seems like a long time (especially when that’s longer than you have been alive) and it is so nice to celebrate such a milestone with the best parents a girl could want.

My parents have always been good examples of love, and what it means to be married. When I would be mad at one of them, the other defended them to the death, and would be insulted (and more punishing) because now I was messing with their spouse, which was a big no-no. They were a team first, supporting each other and taking on the world together, always backing each other up, laughing, cooking, smiling, and (much to our horror) KISSING.

I have gathered a handful of photos from the past few years, and added some from their wedding for you to see just how much love my parents have for each other – and for our family!

Mom and Dad, I hope you have a wonderful day celebrating 30 years of fun – here’s to the years you now will have without us all buzzing around all the time. I love you, and I hope to follow in your footsteps and have such a successful marriage!
