My Parent's 50th Anniversary

My parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary! We were there and I can prove it.

I picked up some pictures below from their wedding album. There were some pictures that I've never seen before. I'll start with the oldest photo first.

This gem captured a magical moment when my junior high aged mom was acting junior high age and my grandpa was trying to get the dog to cooperate and keep the whole thing together:
