Well,
the 50th Anniversary party for my parents went great!!!
They didn't suspect a thing!
Everyone had a great time and I think it was a complete success!!
An old friend of theirs that they haven't seen in about 30 years showed up and the tears
were just a flowing! Just about the whole family was there and we took lots of
pictures and videos.
I have included some of the pictures that I took
and have links to them below.
As for Drake pulling the wagon with the champagne and glasses, he was about to when
it was decided to let the 2 year old great-grandson, Branden, and his 4 year old
sister, Chelsie, pull it instead with all the other great-grandchildren following
behind.
It was very cute!
Drake played with the wagon later on in the night.
My parents, shoved cake in each others faces! We also kept tapping the glasses to
make them kiss, it was like a wedding reception!! It's nice to see that kind of
affection after 50 years! I think we can only hope to be that way when we reach the
golden anniversary!! There was continuous family gatherings since the party and Mom
says they will probably continue until their 75th anniversary at this rate!! As well as
the left over food from the party!
Their trip home was an experience all on it's own. It took them 2 days to get there
by plane, due to mishaps with the airport. At one point they were ready to swim home
if they had to! But they made it safe and sound and can now relax!!
(After
Dad makes the "shrine" to their anniversary that Mom wants for all their gifts)
