28 Valentine’s

It was in October 1984 when my parents first started dating. Now, 28 years later, they are still going strong and celebrating another Valentine’s Day together. And I suppose it’s cliché to share a quote, but whether you’re single or taken, take a few minutes to think about these words today, “If it’s true that all you need is love, than I’m a rich man … I’ve loved, I’ve been loved, show me someone else with as much as me.” – Paul Brandt, Rich Man.

I hope you’re finding yourself as blessed as I am today. Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

    1. Thanks Jess! I love old photos too … they are actually one of my favourite things to look at on other sites, so I figured others would feel the same. 🙂

    1. Thank you so much Phil! I hope you also had a nice one. I was lucky enough to spend the day off work, in the company of family … and chocolates. So, overall … pretty good!

  1. Hi Emily!
    I proposed to Penny on Valentine’s Day in 1966… we were married on September 24, 1966…
    we have had a house filled with love for fourty seven years…. “show me someone else with as much as me”

    Happy Valentine’s Day ! xo:-)

    1. Thanks Jamie! I didn’t have a Valentine’s as good as yours looked, but I definitely spent time with the family and some treats! So, not too bad!

  2. This is such a sweet post, Emily. I love the way you did the photos. I always enjoy my visits to your blog. Keep up the great job!
