40 Years and Counting...

Yesterday we Celebrated a milestone for Dad and Mom Royalty....40 years of Marriage. It was such fun to see the church come together to honor them and this momentous occasion. Thought you would like to see some pics ~!

We'll start with a few pics from the slide show we made for them from their wedding pictures...

We set the slide show to a song they had sung at their wedding, The Wedding Prayer, and I think it turned out beautifully. Now here are some pics from last night!

I had this crazy idea to try to replicate their cake table from 40 years ago, and think we did quite well!

The CAKE. Which at one point I might add, resided on top of a car. Yeah Val and I will NOT be going into the wedding planning business any time soon. :-)

I love this pic!

And this one....


And THIS one!


There was cake cutting,

There was...

cake feeding...

But we did NOT have cake smashing, despite failed attempts by a crazed photographer who will remain anonymous....

There was remembering, there were tears, and there were a lot of people thankful that these people have reached this 40 year marker in their life.

And I was definitely one of them!

Happy 40th Mom and Dad, we sure love you!
