Yesterday was Dorene & Artie's Wedding Anniversary:

Here are some pictures when Dorene & Artie were first married - what a happy couple. I remember Artie sporting that butch hair cut for a long time. Actually, I really can't remember when Artie wasn't part of the family. They were married in 1953 which would have been 55 years of marriage.

This is Dorene and Artie with Chuckie, wasn't he a cute baby! They must have been Godparents for him. My earliest recollection of Artie was when he was working for D&B Ford Motor and they probably were not married yet, but Artie was sitting in an office chair in the little office that was added on to the house and Dorene came in and sat on his lap. The chair tipped back and they both fell backwards onto the floor, laughing all the way. And I can also remember Dorene sitting outside on the grass in her wedding dress with the yellow rose bush in full bloom behind her - I thought it was the most beautiful picture in the world.
