The Big 25


This week was my parents 25'th anniversary....whew! They made it! Who would have ever thought they could last that long?! Not me! ha ha but I am SO glad that they did!! It has been pretty stressful on Cassie and I planning this thing! Oh boy! Trying to come up with what to do, what to give them, and how to make it look nice while being cheap....not any easy thing to do! Luckily it all came together and worked out perfectly! We sent Mom and Dad to eat at The Roof for dinner, with a beautiful corsage and boutonniere I might add, and as soon as they left we went into crazy panic mode and set up everything for a small surprise party for them. We had two chocolate fountains, tons of food, cake, and ice cream. Cassie and I were in charge of the food, Zach and Jess were in charge of the decorations- which looked great guys! The big shocker of the night was that we actually pulled off surprising them! That is a miracle in and of itself because I am THE WORST LIAR in all the world!! And my parents ALWAYS figure it out, or at least suspect something. But we pulled it off superbly! It was a good night and everything went very smoothly! We made them one of those picture slideshows with all the old family pictures. It turned out great. My mom watched it at least five times that night.... I think she cried every time! We have cake and chocolate coming out of ears now, so we will all probably be really fat for a while, but its all good! Cake and chocolate are definitely worth it! Honestly, I am just relieved its over! Good luck on the 50'th Jessica and Zach! Cassie and I are DONE!! Woo Hoo!!!!
