My Grandparents' 60th Wedding Anniversary

60 years ago yesterday, my grandparents were married.  To celebrate, we (except for Sean-he is in NC for work) all met at Lonestar for dinner and went back to Sunrise (where my grandpa lives) and had cake.  Grandpa looked so handsome and Grandpa looked equally pretty - they both dressed up for the special occasion:) 

My grandma told us a little bit about their wedding day...  At the time, my grandpa was a Private in the Marines and he didn't have enough money for the marriage license, so the night before, he set up pins in the bowling alley for the money that was needed.  The next day (which was Thanksgiving) they drove to Philadelphia because to get married in Virginia, you had to get blood taken and my grandma didn't want to do that.
