I called the siblings and they all agreed to secretly come to Idaho that weekend. Meanwhile, they all gathered old photographs and I made a slideshow of all the pictures using Photoshop. It turned out great. Tim and I told his parents we wanted to take them to lunch on Saturday and we decided on the Cheesecake Factory (yummy). All the kids came into town that morning (some from Utah) and they went over to the restaurant to surprise their parents. Bryon and Ann came over to our house and we drove over together and when we walked in I said, "I think our table's ready" and then I pointed across the room. Ann immediately started crying and saying stuff in this really high pitched voice (I think she was happy) and even Bryon got a little misty :) It was such a great surprise. Later, after lunch we watched the movie I'd made and that was a big hit too. We had a great weekend together as a family. Bryon and Ann are such great people and they deserve to be celebrated. Happy Anniversary!!

Alecia bought the boys matching shirts. Have you ever seen cuter cousins? Also, we definitely won't lose these two in a crowd :)

Thanks to my wonderful family for an unforgettable weekend! It was truly a surprise...thanks for all your loving "fibs" to make this happen. I love my family and my two little grandkids are the cutest ever and their parents and aunts aren't so bad either. Heres to another wonderful 30 years!!!
