Happy 72nd Anniversary, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter!

It was 72 years ago this Saturday — July 7, 1946 — when the former president and first lady were married in their hometown at Plains Methodist Church… The Carters will celebrate their anniversary privately, a spokesperson said. They’ve earned both parts of that statement, considering the busy year they’ve had since their 71st anniversary, which fell just before they headed to Canada to spearhead Habitat for Humanity’s 34th Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project… They’ll contentedly work side-by-side on a hot and dusty building site when the 35th Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project for Habitat for Humanity takes place Aug. 26-31 in Mishawaka and South Bend, Indiana.
