Re: 40th Anniversary
My inlaw parents last year celebrated 50th anniversary.
So all of us chipped in our pennies and gave them a surprize party...complete with all their friends...grandkids....karioke.... and a wedding cake!
Our gift was a scrapbook
We asked family and friends to jot down a special or funny memory they had regarding our anniversary couple to be included in the scrapbook. In addition ... we asked that everyone look through their photographs for favorite nostalgic and/or recent memory of time spent together.
Some of the photos we had made into slides....together with old slides..we flashed with music of their day...and played..... well I guess that sounds kind of boring..but in reality it was fun viewing old pictures some had never seen before and old pictures of everyone together.
Anyhow..Party was a big hit.
And parents loved the memory book....especially words by the grandkids...from age 3 to over 21!!
Oh yes...One cannot forget the Polka music...:)
Roll out the barrel, We'll have a barrel of fun...
Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run...
Zing boom terrara...
(really should be Polish greeting)
Join in a glass of good cheer...
Now it's time to roll the barrel...
For the gang's all here ....
