Steve’s parents just celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with all the family this weekend and it was awesome. My kids spent the whole week celebrating non-stop with cousins and they (as well as parents) are exhausted. I deem the next couple days cousin free while we detox and try to regain our once polite and well-behaved children! There was swimming every day, late nights, pounds of sugar and more fun than any kid should be allowed to have! We are going into summer in full stride.

I have memory cards full of pictures I have to sort through, but here are just a few from this momentous occasion. Its amazing what 50 years of a strong and beautiful relationship can create.

Here’s the whole family. Mom and Dad. Nine Kids. Thirty-seven grandkids. Two spouses of grandkids. One large group who knows how to have a good time! Happy Anniversary.

More pictures to come…
