On August 9, my parents celebrated their twenty fifth wedding anniversary! Yesterday, I took photos of them to mark the occasion. We started at sunrise with some shots of them waking up, doing their morning ritual of howling with Chelo (their dog), and making coffee before we headed out to Kirkland, hoping to go to the French Bakery for a delicious breakfast, but we probably should have figured they would have been closed on Labor Day. Instead, we went down to the park at the Kirkland waterfront and took some pictures there.
Mom, Dad — I love you both so much and I’ve said it a thousand times before, but I am so grateful to have such excellent role models for my own marriage. You’ve shown through example what it means to stick it out through good times and bad, and I am so lucky to have parents as committed to making their marriage not just work, but thrive over the years. It’s easy to stay together just to stay together, it’s not so easy to stay together and stay in love. I am so lucky to have parents that have managed the latter.
Anyway, here are just a few pictures from yesterday, with more coming soon. Love you both!
