During Christmas holidays, we had the privilege of celebrating David's parents and their 40th wedding anniversary! 40 years, wow! That's such a huge accomplishment, especially in this day and time, and we were thrilled to be able to honor them.
David's sister, Cari, made the centerpieces, and I think they turned out so well! Shes way more crafty than me, ha!
For their wedding 40 years ago, Papa and Gigi used red and white for their colors, so we went with a red and white theme, very apropos, don't you think! I love how their cake turned out, and it was divine!

That's some good sugar!

One of my favorite parts of the celebration was seeing all of the little cousins playing together. They had the most fun!
Sweet sisters.
Love these precious faces!
My Story girl.
And my Tilly girl. She was so tired during the party, and every few minutes she would ask me how much longer! Finally, she curled up on my shoulder and just went fast to sleep!

I am so thankful for Miss Cindy's sake that Papa didn't try any funny stuff!
I love this look on his face!
Going in for the smooch!
Funny face!!
I love that Carter wanted to be in this picture!

All the family members who were able to be at the celebration.
We framed the invitation and had the guests to sign the matte, so that Papa and Gigi can hang it up in their home as a reminder of this special day. I love that Carter wrote Happy New Year, ha!
Tilly and her friend, Eli! These two always seem to have so much fun when we are together.

Happy Anniversary, Papa and Gigi! We are so thankful that we were able to celebrate such an important milestone with both of you. Thank you so much for being such a wonderful example to us and to our children. We are thankful for the legacy that you are leaving in your path. We love you!
