50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration


On Saturday, July 20, we celebrated my parent's 50th wedding anniversary with an open house. It is certainly an incredible blessing to celebrate 5o happy years together. I am very glad my parents could have this opportunity. We had a wonderful time visiting with friends and relatives who attended.

Their actual anniversary is in January but it worked better with the family to celebrate it this summer. It happened at a very busy time this summer so we know there were several who could not attend but we enjoyed the ones who did. 

It was a very fun family weekend. We also did family pictures on Mom and Dad's farm, using the fields and the old John Deere as a background.

We played games and what Iowa weekend is complete without some time on the go-carts.  On Monday we even ventured to Adventureland. The weather has been very hot in Iowa. We spent quite a bit of time in the waterpark but also enjoyed some other rides. It was not as bad as I feared. It's a place where every age can find something they like.
