Wedding anniversary

Today is my anniversary. We were married in 1941. World War two was still on so there were a few shortages. I wore my sister's wedding dress but had a new veil. I was gorgeous. I wore white but my mother-in-law wore black. It was a wonderful wedding if I do say so myself. In Topeka after you were married you rode down the main street honking your horn. My brother was the last car and I think he got arrested. We flew to Denver for our honeymoon. The plane ride took four hours and our hotel room was not saved for us. We went down the why we were late to the hotel. The next day we flew to Estes Park but I think we took a bus. On our honeymoon we took time to fly to Cheyenne for a rodeo. That ride was exciting. We were able to celebrate our fifty before he died. I think we had a very good marriage. I liked it.
