"Time Flies When You're Having Fun"

My parents celebrated their 40 years of marriage this June and we were able to party about it at our family reunion in July. My parents threw the best dinner party for us, so many great details and executed so well. Teen broke it all down over HERE. My parents always gave us little gifts on their anniversary growing up and this year they went above and beyond. I love the theme and the message they put inside. I've worn the watch every day since.

I loved:

hawaiian haystacks for dinner

that kids ate first, then adults

goodie bags full of candy, parachute guys, and party blowers

toast by my brother

speeches by my parents

apple cider for the kids

mini martinelli's for the adults
metcalf family trivia questions

everyone opening gift boxes together

the triangle napkin holders with cloth napkins

the 40 picture garland

oatmeal cake and berries for dessert

favorite family story sharing that night
