Celebrations!

Just Got a Party for our 25th Anniversary! 

     OK, they could only surprise one of us because between David and I working and planning and arranging things for our normal lives - no one could know our schedules. I got the surprise.

     I even threw in a last minute church meeting David didn't know about on the day of the party - which was being organized at the church (without me knowing) - I still had no time to think about someone taking time to organize a special gathering for us. 

     David's sister Kelly and her daughter did a great job - they got OLD photos scanned (and back in the photo albums without me knowing), she even got us orange tiger lilies for the tables and balloons (just like at our wedding) She worked to make all the food and served it up with all her dishware!

     And this wasn't the only celebration. Last week at the last Ministry Team meeting they celebrated my work as Youth Director. The chair, Bob, had cupcakes and drinks and they gave us cards and a gift certificate.  (I even got a flock of Ducks donated in my name to Heifer International! - that's just cool!) And a week or so ago I was gifted a "Wordle" as a thank you from the church board at our Congregational Business meeting.

We are both feeling SO BLESSED!

There is another CELEBRATION being planned so save the date!
