A lovely bush we bought for our sixty fifth wedding anniversary to plant in a corner of the garden, - an Exochord Macrantha called "The Bride" Pearl Bush.
And here is another picture of a Bride taken sixty-five years ago today on the morning of our wedding day. I call it The Pensive Bride.
Was I reluctant, - oh no, never - but it was a big step I was taking moving away from family and friends with this handsome man who just twelve days ago was arriving in New York Harbour, returning from service overseas with the RCAF/RAF.
We celebrated quietly today. A drive, then out for dinner. When we make Seventy we will have a party! Fireworks and a live band and a carnival, as one of our grandsons suggests!
Hope you can join us......

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Lovely blooms for a very special celebration! And thank you so much for sharing the beautiful pictures -- that big step worked out pretty well, didn't it!
Ill look forward to hearing about that big 70th and each one in between.
My soul, you were a handsome couple. Movie stars, both of you. I wish you both the happiest of anniversaries! How fabulous to have had 65 of them! I can't wait to read about the celebrations for your 70th!
65 years together is so rewarding to hear. My folks celebrated 59 yrs before Dad passed to heaven just a few months shy of their anniversary.
Congratulations and we will be looking forward to seeing pictures of the fireworks and carnival at your 70th.

Wow 65 years together. I thought we were a bit good getting to 51, obviously a few more years to go yet.
Congratulations and wait for the 70.
Wow! Happy Anniversary.
My heartfelt congratulations, Hildred! It seems it was meant to last! Love the new header photo, too.
