Happy Anniversary Ma and Pa!







This year was my in-laws 35th Wedding Anniversary! As a family (the kids) decided to put together a surprise "family party". Together with grandma we planned well in advance for the event. Each one of the kids sent grandma a piece of fabric (clothing, blanket etc) that meant something special to us and she quilted them all together along with pictures of the past 35 years. The memory quilt turned out amazing and was such a blessing. We also put together a scrapbook full of stories and information about why we chose the fabric on the quilt to represent us. All of the girls made a special lunch for the family (this made my mother-in-law happy because she didn't have to cook)and then we all went to the Melting Pot for dessert. It was a GREAT day and one that will be memorable to all who were a part of it.
