Dedaddy and Memama (Russell's grandparents) will celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary coming up in June. What an accomplishment and how bountifully the Lord has blessed them and He still continues. I am so thankful God allowed me to be a part of such a strong Christian family.
We had a little family celebration this past weekend at our church. I don't guess its really "little" when you consider there are 32 in their immediate family. Anyway, we had a great meal, lots of fellowship and watched two videos of the past years. Thanks to Mandi and Dave for all of their hard work on the newest one!
This is the whole crew! All 32 of them... Dedaddy, Memama, their 4 children, 9 grandchildren and spouses, and 7 great grandchildren. Uncle Pete and Aunt Shirley were also in this picture with us.
The Wiggins Crew... (Flemings, Reeves, and Orton)
Uncle Alan and Aunt Kathy with Dedaddy and Memama
Aunt Amy and her boys Dave (Mandi) and Chad (Sabrina)
Memama and Dedaddy's youngest daughter Jill and her family... John, Emily, Riley Ann and Jenny
Uncle Pete and Aunt Shirley (Helms) are some of their dear friends.
Happy 60th Anniversary Dedaddy and Memama. I love you both SO much!!
P.S. Russell and I were laughing the other day when we realized we'd have to live to be 89 to have a 60th anniversary... we're shooting for it though!!!

Love your post too! I'm going to burn everyone a cd of the pictures I took Saturday, and try to fit the slide show on it too. I think you and Russ can def. make it to
89! However, Dave will have to make it to 91 and a half:)
What a sweet post! They're a good example of what marriage should be! Hang on-you and Russell will make it too! It's fun to think about that-no telling who will be in your "family photo"!!! :) Thanks for my fun day!!!!!
That is so sweet!
Guess the kid count is going up! Congrats! Mom shared the news!
Enjoyed your post! What a blessing. By the way, I've been out of touch lately with the blog world. Just saw I had been "tagged" by you. Hopefully, I can get to that this week. Oh, and by the way, CONGRATS!!!
