Golden Anniversary

Saturday evening we had the big 50th anniversary celebration of Brian's parents. All of Brian's siblings and spouses were there, as well as most of the grandchildren (I think there were 3 grandchildren not there). We had a nice dinner for the family first at the church, then there was an Open House that extended family and friends were invited to.




During the dinner, we presented Brian's parents with the memory quilt and memory book. Each couple and each grandchild picked a quilt square with something that represented a memory they had of Brian's parents or Star Valley. In the book (which was the project I was in charge of), we had a picture of the quilt square by a picture of the person it went with, along with their memories. It all turned out really nice.




Here is a close up picture of the quilt. Brian's (and my) square is the tractor, McKay's is the tent (bottom edge), Hannah's is the star (in the lower left corner), Courtney's is the pink flower (left edge) and Hayley's is the baby chick (also left edge).



The kids had fun playing with their cousins. Here is Hayley with her cousins Allison (Hayley is just a few months older):



It was a nice evening!
