Serving Proudly As The Voice Of Valley County Since 1913

Just for Fun Country Chuckles

Mary Ellen, our number nine child, who had just arrived home from school, strolled through our farm house with an anxious look on her pretty face.

She blurted out, “Mom WHEN are you and Dad EVER going to get married?”

I went into a state of shock....right there in our living room!

“Honey....Dad and I have been married for 30 years!” I was very puzzled....It turned out that Mary Ellen thought that a couple were married only if the bride wore a lovely white gown.

Louie and I had an informal wedding, very common in that era. My expensive pink suit took all my month’s secretarial paycheck but I must say I wore that fashionable suit quite frequently after our wedding.
