The Anniversary Clock


The "Anniversary Clock"...
or so it was named by my family
when it was presented to my grandparents.
It was to celebrate their Golden Wedding Anniverary.
I've always wanted to highlight it in a vignette.





My grandparents in earlier years...



And then in later years when they made a trip
to visit us in Las Cruces, New Mexico.



I'm linking to Marty's 104th
"Table Top Tuesday"
on her blog A Stroll Thru Life

and



Ivy and Elephants for
"Wow it Wednesday"

Beautiful tribute to your grandparents. I loved the way that they were so dressed up on their visit! My father used to wear a suit, when he was driving in the car on vacation! Thanks for sharing!

I love Grandparent pictures and the vintage black and whites of their earlier years. Makes me miss my Grandma and Grandpa...but in a good way. :)

Always nice to see a great tribute to family on the blogs. Thanks so much for stopping by Bella Rosa!
