Mama and Daddy thought they were going to a family birthday/Mother's Day celebration on Saturday, but it turned out to be a surprise party for them. Their 25th wedding anniversary is later this month. (Mama says to mention that they were only 20/21 when they married.) They were completely surprised. Four members of the wedding party were there including two that now live in different states.
Mama said the party area probably was decorated better than her actual wedding reception. There were photos all over including photos of us. Grandma "stole" them from my blog.
There were photos streaming on a computer monitor. The food was catered. There was a cake that Mama said was delicious. Mama said she was so shocked that she could barely eat. She said if she could always feel like that, she would loose weight.
Mama said that it sounds like the whole family was involved in planning and decorating. It was quite an undertaking and they definitely went to way too much trouble, but it is very much appreciated.
After the party, the friends came back to our house to see our new house and, of course, to see us. We were very excited to meet them.
It was a fun day!
