The Golden Anniversary

Cannon and I flew to California last Wednesday to help Jarom's family prepare for Grammy and Papa's 50th wedding anniversary.

Grammy and Papa are two of my favorite people. Grammy is the sweetest, most selfless person I know. I talk to her at least once a week to let her know what we are up to. She worries about everyone constantly and never ceases to amaze with her generous spirit. I've known Grammy for six years, but I feel like I've known her my whole life. Papa loves his family. He is funny and smart. He always makes sure everyone is properly fed. I remember the first time I met him, we were at a restaurant and he ordered me an extra salad just to make sure I had enough to eat. He is sweet and kind.

It was so great to be able to celebrate these two!

It wasn't all work. We got pedicures, shopped and played with Cannon's two cousins.

You've got to have the classic bathtub with your cousins picture!

Jarom joined us on Saturday just before the party. It was perfect! We ate a delicious Italian meal of lasagne, antipasta salad, meatballs, and some yummy bread. There was a slide show and many touching tributes from friends and family.

I love this one! They are so cute!

Thanks to Cannon, they had some fingerprint art on the cake! Ooops! Mommy was busy taking pictures.

It was so fun to see relatives and friends. We are happy to be home now, especially after missing our flight yesterday and hanging out in the Vegas airport for a while. Thanks to the Becars for letting us crash at their place and for being such a great family! We love you!

How fun and what a great inspiration for eveyone ;-) We missed you guys but now Jeremy can honestly be proud of doing his first barbeque all by himself without Jerom's help ;-)
