Love is patient, love is
kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked,
does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth bears all things, believes
all things, hopes all things and endures all things.
This weekend has been super packed with lots of exciting things. This weekend my family and close family friends have been celebrating my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary! Yes that’s right my grandparents have been married for 50 years! It’s not often these days that marriages last 10 years let alone 50 but my grandparents have been an inspiration to many as they have been happily married since 1963. To celebrate this very special occasion my grandparents thought there was no better way to do it than renewing their wedding vows to show the world there commitment for one another. The ceremony brought a tear to my eye as it was so touching to see how much love my grandparents have for one another even after all these years. It was also nice to see so many people turn up and rise to the occasion. With my granddad been a Bishop he and my grandma have touched so many people and guided many through their marriages. It was nice to hear so many people talk about how my grandparents marriage have influenced their own marriages and how they put my grandparents on a pedestal. After all like I said it really isn’t that often you find a couple that have been married for 50 years.
Throughout the ceremony many various things took place, I and my grandma’s god daughter Beth dedicated a song for them both, my parents read a poem and there were many other tributes that took place. It was such a special moment and it was enjoyed by all.

I felt so honoured to call them my grandparents as not only have they had a big impact on other peoples lives they have and will continue to have an impact on mine and I will always look up to them x
That's an amazing milestone! Congratulate your grandparents for us because most people only ever dream of having a relationship that lasts half as long!! It looks like you threw them an amazing party too!
