Quick story - most of you all know that my father is now in a nursing home because of the damage from his stroke in January. He is unable to clearly communicate with us any longer.This summer my son started a project to electronically archive all of my mother's photo albums. That was the first photo that he scanned. I came up with the idea to put some of the pictures on my son's laptop and take them to show my dad at the nursing home. You shoulda seen how he stared at and studied that wedding picture. It was priceless. 48 years later - that love is still there.

These are such a joy to see! It reminds me of the photos of my mom and dad when they were married (5/03/47). You have also planted a seed in me. I think I will find out where my sister stored all of the pictures mommy and daddy had and try to save them on a CD or DVD.
