My Dad's Anniversary Dinner
Last night was fun. It was my parents' 40 wedding anniversary and we took my Dad to Market Street Grill to celebrate. We arrived and there was a sign saying, "Dorius Family Downstairs." We had our own dining room overlooking the creek or river or whatever runs next to the restaurant. It was a very nice setting. They brought us appetizers and drinks while we stood around talking. Then Dawn gave my Dad his anniversary card with a message from my Mom inside. She had my Mom write it before she died and she didn't tell my Dad till last night. He loved it. It was nice to read something in my Mom's handwriting. After we were done eating we just sat and talked. My Dad told us stories of good and bad anniversaries with my Mom over the years. It was an extremely nice evening with our family. Happy anniversary Dad!

What a fun night!! Mom would have loved it. I hope She was able to sneak a peak and enjoy watching her family gorge themselves - I think we all paid for it with indigestion, heart burn, and everything else - well worth it though. What a night!!
One Anniversary down - here come the holidays... we can do this... I keep telling myself - "I can do this."
I wish you back, Mom, all the time.
Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad!
It was an evening Mom would have loved. I'm sure she was there. Somehow it makes it easier when we are all together. I hope Dad had a good day.
