Golden Anniversary

On July 29, 2017 my parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Wow. 50 years of marriage!
Pablo and Angelica Garcia
July 29, 1967
And 50 years later...

I know that every single day of their marriage hasn't been perfect; no marriage is perfect. But I also know that to have loved someone through good and bad for 50 years, and to still be walking side by side, is something very sacred. They made both a spoken and unspoken commitment to each other all those years ago and have never waivered. They didn't walk away; they didn't turn their backs even though there might have been dark days. I imagine that the highs of love and life overshadowed any darkness and carried them through today. 

Cheers to you both, Mom and Dad. You have paved a beautiful path for the rest of us to walk along, and I hope to make you as proud of us as we are of you.  




Happy 50th anniversary, Mom and Dad! 
We love you both more than you could ever know.
