On April 12, 2011, my brother and I threw my parents a surprise 40th Wedding Anniversary party! It was amazing! They were more than surprised! When they walked in the room, it took several seconds for them to notice that 75 of their closest friends were there to celebrate this special day. Granted their wedding anniversary wasn't until April 13th, we figured if we told a little white lie...that my brother and I were taking them to dinner....they couldn't refuse! As most people knew, April 12th was our 3rd wedding anniversary! It truly was one of the best ways we couldn't spent the night. It's crazy how our 3 years have flown by so quickly. I can't imagine 40 years:)
I couldn't be more happy that my parents are STILL married. They have set such a great example for us and what the scrament of marriage means. It's so rare that people stay married anymore so here's to you Mom and Dad! We hope you enjoyed every second of your surprise! Love you!
