Party of a Lifetime

Last weekend, my family got together and invited many old friends to come over and celebrate my parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary.  It was a fantastic weekend full of memories, stories, and renewing friendships. 

My nephew showed my mom how to scan her photos from her scrapbooks and she had 350+ picture that The Girl helped her get into a slide show fro the party.  Each picture, of course, had a story...and my dad did a terrific job narrating the pictures for those of us that weren't there originally.  50 years worth of memories can take some time to get through.  Luckily for us most of the memories they have of those 50 years are good ones.

Two of my favorite aunts were there, as well some favorite cousins and friends.  I couldn't have enjoyed with without my dear friend, Amy, kindly taking pictures throughout the party. I can't wait to see what she comes up with.

Last Friday night we had a family dinner in Salt Lake City and it was just as full of laughs and memories.  We haven't had the oldest nephew with us for any family thing in a L O N G time, so it was such a pleasant surprise to have him there for the dinner.
