Happy 82nd Birthday!

 Today is Phil's 82nd birthday! We have been through 53 of them now, and with each year I love him more. He continues to be the best man I have ever known, and the love of my life!




Our family will be getting together later this week to celebrate. The girls posted these pics on Facebook for him (they are out of state right now).



This is another Facebook post they made for him many years ago when they were younger.

You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love. The running across fields into your lover's arms can only come later when you're sure they won't laugh if you trip.

Happy Birthday to your husband, Ginny. What a fun picture of him with the monkey. I thought you had two granddaughters. Oh my, three, how wonderful. I hope he had a special day. He has a nice smile. : )
