Seems Like We've Been Coordinating This For Weeks

The big day arrived, my parents 50th wedding anniversary. We invited them over for dinner and then visited their patio for cake and presents.

We visited the $1.25 store for some decorations and found these balloons shaped like "50". I also managed to find some nice roses that made a great pair.

The cake was custom made from a bakery. The girls said they like the bells on the top of the cake.

The big surprise was a box full of cash... no not really but judging by their expression it might as well been! We had secretly mailed all of their friends, inviting them to mail anniversary cards with memories and stories, pictures mementos, etc so we can present them all at once. We got back 52 letters and it was an impressive stack.

We brought over their favorite champagne and we had them cut the cake, like they did when they were first married in 1972.

Hello my friend! 😊

Happy Anniversary to your parents, 50 years is quite a milestone! They don't look old enough to have been married for 50 years, they've aged well. 😊

That cake is lovely, well done to whomever decorated it. 😊

God bless you and your wonderful family. Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! 😊

Thank you! Yes I agree, my parents really don't look like they're in their 70's. I think it's because they interact with children so much, keeps them young. People peg me as younger than I am also, even with the beard and glasses. I'm 44, that still rounds down to "40 something" right?

You're most welcome! That's smart of your parents. I've been spending time with our neighbours daughter, she's seven and very energetic, that helps keep me moving and hopefully I'll look younger than I am too, if not, I'm okay with getting older and I've earned every grey hair and wrinkle. LOL! 😊
