50th Anniversary

Over the weekend we threw my grandparents a 50th Anniversary party...but even more than that it was a surprise. AND they were surprised!! It was about a year of planning and inviting all their friends and family and it remained a surprise...that was amazing!
I have the best grandparents. They are a wonderful example of who I should be and how my marriage should be. I am so blessed to have them in my life! What a great heritage I come from!

Here are a few pictures from our night...


We had a display table set up of a whole bunch of pictures through the years. I think finding all these pictures were as much fun as anything!

Connie, Mindi and Cami (with their mom, my grandma's sister) came down from Utah for the party.Me with my cousin Mindi and her baby Brooklynn (what a cutie she was!)Grandpa with my cousin MichaelMy sister MarLi with Grandpa My grandparents with their two daughters My mom and I
