Today my parents celebrated their 50th anniversary on a beautiful snowy evening, just like FIFTY years ago. I was lucky enough to be able to fly in for the weekend and Stefanie and AJ were able to join me from school. We of course should have taken more photos but some are better than none!!
First I needed to taunt my siblings that I beat them to my parents house. Just a reminder I came all the way from Germany!
Before the party I visited the club with my parents to make sure everything was set, deliver the cake and finalize the details. My mom used her veil for a decoration on the cake table. While my dad was the official veil holder, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to revisit a moment from my childhood!
I wish I had gotten more than a snapchat photo of me, AJ and Stefanie...
The happy couple! |
Elsie, Theresa and Kathleen (when I was little this is what my grandma often called my mom, she just went through all the names to get to my mom) |

My cousins Michael and Peg were the ring bearer and flower girl, how great that they could be part of this celebration!
Everyone had a wonderful time celebrating my mom and dad and their incredible accomplishment of fifty years of marriage.
The next day Stefanie had a little fun with Granny's veil.
