Wow -- it was a different time, wasn't it!! Wonderful journaling! My grandparents had known each other for 2 weeks when they got married -- he was thirty, she was eighteen -- and they lasted 49 years before my grandpa passed away.
Such a treasure. Now here is two people that I can see that truely love each other!!!! I love this...love it love it love!!! Thank you for sharing this couple. Don't want to rush you but please hurry with the other layout..I am excited to read the next part of the love story!
my parents wedding reception was filled with High Jinx.
JOURNALING: -Jim and Shirley met on a blind date in a bar in Modesto, CA -They knew each other 6 days before they wed. Jim said it was because it was a long holiday weekend and he didn't have anything else to do. (in case you're wondering, they were married over 40 years till my father's death) -Shirley told her parents she was planning to elope and they insisted she bring a chaperon- Shirley's sister Eva and Eva's husband Jack. -Shirley packed her white Graduation dress for the wedding, but when they got to Nevada, she didn't have it. So she borrowed Eva's blue dress. They lost the photos. -Upon returning home, the Cadwell family threw the newlyweds a wedding reception in Modesto, CA -They dressed Shirley in her sister-in-law Maureen's wedding gown, then gave her a "veil" jokingly made from a curtain sheer decorated with Christmas tinsel. Jim got to wear his new father-in-law's "bibber" overalls. -September 6, 1959 Labor day
A second page will follow about how they were driven around town in in the back of a truck with a baby doll and shotgun (shotgun wedding even though it wasn't) and how her siblings sabotaged the honeymoon suite.
