Hidden Treasures

I spent sometime in the garage on Sunday tidying up the space, as I'm using a portion of my parent's garage as my personal storage unit (thanks Mom and Dad!). :) When my Grandma gifted the sewing desk to me, she had left one of the drawers full of sewing notions (zippers, rick rac, elastic, etc.). I had emptied the drawer to go through the goodies, not knowing exactly all that was in the drawer until my Dad found this...


Which resulted in this (July 1976)....


I'm a bit biased, but aren't they the cutest high school sweethearts ever? :)

And just for kicks, here they are today (well, technically September 2009...but today they're just a couple of months short of their 35th wedding anniversary)!

    If my daughter was in high school came to me and said "I've met this really great guy and he's in the army" I'd lock her up! I do love you dad's tux, though :)
