Happy 57th Anniversary!


My parents have been married 57 years as of June 22. What an awesome example of two best friends taking care of each other! I only remember them having one "argument" and that was when we were building the house they still live in. I was in the 6th grade and we had been to Lubbock looking for a bathtub and/or found one while looking for something else. The details are gone, but I remember that they found a tub with a slight flaw in it and the discussion began as to whether to buy that tub or not. They say that if you can survive a house building, your marriage can survive anything. Guess that's true. Then there was the time that Daddy spit tobacco juice in Mama's spackle bucket. But that was no argument. Just an explanation of how nasty that was from Mama. They still raise some cattle and some feed crops to take care of the feed for those cattle. And the Spur Bulldogs are still cheered on to victory by them. Congratulations, Cristol & Maude! Love you!
