On August 16th, my parents headed north on route 101 through Oregon and toward Washington. Mom and Dad decided to see if they could go back to work, and what better place than the Tillamook Creamery, driving a cheese truck? But as you can see, the driving test did not go well. The road should have had a guard rail.
Maybe they could go back to work as actors? Wait, they don’t do “Laurel & Hardy” films anymore! 😂
Here’s Dad and Mom now, married 58 years, and living their best lives!
Mom and Dad, 60 years ago, on June 9, 1963, which happened to be their very first date. 🤍🌺
My only regret is that I was not there in person to capture the Tillamook moment. 😂 The photo was taken by Kari, who is one of my sisters. 🤍🌺
Thank you for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting. I appreciate you!

Awwwww how fantastic is this! Happy Anniversary to you beautiful parents.
Thank you so much, Belladonna. 🙂
You’re welcome!
This is such a fun post.
Thank you so much, Robbie. 🤍🌺 It was never dull growing up with these two. LOL
Your parents look so fun, Kymber. Congrats on 58 years of marriage! That’s wonderful.
Thank you so much, Diana. They are a riot, it’s true! LOL :D🤍🌺
Please express my best wishes to your parents. They have actually been married longer than me (52 years)!
Thank you, I will do that. And congratulations to you and your spouse as well! That is wonderful!
This is so much fun! “Liking and lurking” lol. Thanks for adding a smile to my evening 😉
Thank you so much, Jennifer! 🤍🌺 I’m glad I could make you smile. 🙂
Aw me too, dear! 🤗
Oh my gosh Kymber, how beautiful and what a blessing! 🙏🏼 Now, you don’t find marriages that last that long these days…through the good, the bad and the crazy! Thanks for sharing these beautiful memories my friend! 🥰💖😍
Thank you, chickiepie! My parents have definitely set a good example for our family. I’m truly blessed to have them. Also, they’re often hilarious to be around. 😀 🤍🌺
Oh how I love their youthful attitude. Yes girl, I agree with you, what a blessing they are! 😊🙏🏼🤗
I often forget how old they are. My dad turned 80 this year, but to me, he just doesn’t act or look 80. My mom is 76 and I feel the same way about her.
Now talk about the spice of life! I love it! 😍💖🥰🥂😘
Oh, yes, so true! :)🤍🌺
💖💖💖
Congratulations to your parents! 58 years is no small feat! Because you and your sister are here I can tell that they raised a lovely family and I’m sure you must be proud of how far they’ve come since that picture of their first date all those years ago ❤️
Thank you so much! 🤍🌺 You are so sweet. I am really proud of them, it’s true. And I’m grateful for the wonderful upbringing I had as well. 🙂
Congrats to them! My wife and I plan on being married 70 years and then renew the lease! We’re just over 34 years now, 😀
Thank you, Jonathan, and congratulations to you, too! That is so cool! 🤍🌺
Yes, except we never did try driving a milk truck together! 😀
Oh, but you must! It’s all the rage! 😂😂
how about a Chevy Scooter through 90 mph traffic—we could barely handle 60—on the Connecticut Turnpike? THAT was a scary rip!
I bet! 😂
😀
Thanks for sharing, lovely pics, they certainly look like they’re having fun!
They sure were! They have fun wherever they go and their friendship and love have stood the test of time.
I love the picture. It’s nice to be reminded that love sometimes does last – and maybe even gets better.
Thank you, Mary. 🤍🌺 I like what you said here. My parents have always been a good example for our family.
BTW, I’m in Michigan, too!
Awww, your parents are adorable!!
Thank you so much, Jan. 🤍🌺
It is beautiful to see how fun they still have together after so many years! You missed the Tilamook moment but I bet you’ve been there to witness so many others…
Thank you, Jill. 🤍🌺 Oh, yes, that is true! There have been so many fond memories made over the years.
58 years, that is wonderful. I love the old photo. Congratulations to your parents 🎁🏆🎂🥂💖
Thank you, Thomas. I love that photo, too. 🙂
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad! Forget cheese. You need a champagne truck!
Thank you so much! I think a champagne truck sounds much better, too! 😂🤣
Awwwww, this is a beautiful thing to see. I bet they are tons of fun and a real hoot. Bless them and wishing them many, many more years of continued happiness. ♥️😋❤️😀😍💕🦋
Thank you so much, Nise. They really are a lot of fun and we get together often. It’s never dull, I’ll tell you that. LOL
Ahhh! so good to see this post. It made my day. I haven’t been online in so long that it was refreshing to get back online.Glad you’re well.
Hi, Jo! It’s so good to see you! 😀 We’re doing great, thank you. I hope you are well also. 🤍🌺
This post put a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing, Kymber.
I’m so glad, John. 🙂 That makes me happy.
As a result we both are happy.
Lovely! They look so much like you and your kids and grandkids! Reunions must be a hoot!
Thank you, CT. The genes are strong. LOL 😀 Luckily, they only live a couple miles from us, so we get to see them often.
These two look like they are really fun to be around, & I love that they also appear to be best friends. Thanks for the glimpse into this part of their life!
You are right about that, Gorilla. They are always tons of fun. 😀 They are definitely best friends and a good example for the family.
Wishing them continued happiness.
Thank you, Mama Dragon!
That was fun, Kymber!
