Today is Grandma and Grandpa Trenda's 72nd wedding anniversary!! Yesterday I went with Cassie and Nick to Northfield to have cake and celebrate with some of the family. It is nice to see them together after all these years still! They both looked very happy yesterday. One can only hope their marriage will last as long as theirs. Most couples these days are either widowed or divorced by their age! Can you imagine everything they have seen change since they were first married in 1938!! In 1938 Franklin D. Roosevelt was president, it was normal to have a stay-at-home wife, women had only been allowed to vote for the last 18 years, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was just released, War of the Worlds was aired terrifying people, not to mention it was still the Great Depression. I wonder what they think of everything that has changed since the day they got married.
Congratulations Grandma and Grandpa Trenda!

P.S. Who can say they still have Great Grandparents still alive and married by the time they are in their 20's!!
