This is my theme for Thankful Thursday this week.
If it were not for the past I would not be who I am today.
So I am thankful for all the good and bad things that made me who I am today.
I started life as an innocent kid from West Virginia.
Who would have thought I would grow up in St. Louis. Mo.
So I am thankful that my Mom married my Step dad . and he made the choice to move us there.
Or this would not be my life today.
I would be married to a mountain man and living some where in WV.
The photo above is my prom in 1978.
Yep it is me and hubby.
NOTE: I am not taller than him I just have tall shoes on. LOL
For my wedding I wore flats so he would be taller than me.

This is me and my mother inlaw on May 10, 1980
Hubby's 2 sisters in the photo have passed. He is #12 of 15 kids.His Dad was one of the youngest of 15 kids.
And I am very thankful. I only have 2.
My kids and grandkids make my life special.
I am thankful to be here for them.
I am also thankful Sunday May 10 will not only be my 29th anniversary , but also Mothers day. I did not realize when I picked that day for 1980 that it was also Mothers day. I am thankful so many people gave up there mothers day to celebrate my Wedding.
Thank you all for rejoicing with me today in my past to celebrate this year.Happy MOTHERS Day to you all!.

What a sweet post! Loved the pics. Happy Anniversary and Happy Thankful Thursday!
I LOVE the pictures! You have a happy Mother's Day too!
What sweet photos! Yes, I remember the platform shoes, I wore them, too. I was only 5'8" in high school, Lord knows I need to be at least 4" taller, haha! I think I was taller in those shoes than almost every boy in class. I bet guys in the 70's hated our shoes!
Dear E.
You are very beautiful girl in the shot !
Happy Anniversary and Mother's Day!
It's kind of neat when life circles around and we can be thankful for all that has made us who we are. Wonderful post!
