Has it really already been 25 years!?

So January 19th was our 25th wedding anniversary. We were just gonna go on "weekend get away" the following week when our oldest was going to be home so she could Nanny. THEN... a weird conversation occurs with Tiff. She has to then tell me that she was wanting to surprise us with a small family get together that weekend. She promises it is nothing huge, really low key, but it was already in the works. So no weekend get away. WELL...That girl of ours along with help if her Grandma Dianna, and Aunts-Leslie, Jamie, Kristi, and cousins Kelly and the rest of the family pulled off a beautiful evening with many surprises. Leslie hosted it at her warm and beautiful home. We had a sit down dinner (thanks Kristi) with beautiful flower arrangements (thanks to Dianna), gourmet dessert (thanks Kelly), a slide show (thanks Jamie) and wonderful friends that came. Our dear friends the Klepinger's came from Arizona (that made me laugh and cry), Camille & Brig, Mark and Jamie also came from AZ. Then the Spiker's, Kavanagh's, and Cooley's. Our friends from Kirk's company, the Kevorken's and Viadero's; what a treat and what a surprise to have you all there! Then of course our families, and even my mom flew in from out of town (another surprise)! The night was so special and it was so meaningful, to have all those who have touched our lives along the way. We felt loved, honored, and embarrassed that everyone went to such efforts on our behalf. We love and appreciate you all!!! My brother Matt took pictures, Its all about Making Memories!
