I realized, just today, that we had a truly magnificent anniversary and I never even thought to share the joy with all our family and friends.

I uploaded pictures and a video of course, but that doesn’t begin to tell the whole story…..so here goes…..

Our 46th anniversary was on April 14 and our family really went all out to make it super special.  Our oldest son, Darren, and his wife Celine had invited us out to see the movie,  MIrror Mirror that afternoon.

Unbeknownst to us, as soon as we left the house, if became a buzz with the rest of the family took over.

When we arrived home later, there, spread before our eyes was a feast to beat all feasts.  Lots of delicious bar-b-q of all types and numerous side dishes.  What a treat that was not to have to do any of the preparations. We also discovered that we had a new and wonderful kitchen faucet installed. They really scurried around to get all this accomplished so quickly.

Then they lead us into the living room for the next surprise.  There, showing on our living TV, was a slide show of our lives set to music.  Needless to say the tears began.  What next you say? Well, in addition to all of this we were presented with 20 albums of pictures from the past which had never made into albums until now. This was truly a labour of love.

We all had a wonderful evening together….sharing memories, good food and great company.

There aren’t words enough to ever express the tremendous gratitude we feel toward our wonderful loving family.  We have been blessed in countless ways, but the most important gift of all is this great family we have.

So now you too know the story of what our anniversary was really all about!
