50 years together

This past weekend I flew to Utah to celebrate my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary.
They celebrated by getting married all over again. And when I say get married, I mean the whole sha-bang from the rehearsal dinner to cutting the cake. It was a BIG affair and so much fun. I wish Kris could have been there to see it. I arrived a couple of days early to help with last minute preparations as my grandma had not been doing well and therefore wasn't able to handle all the details. We spent those days shopping, ALL day. But I think it was worth it. The wedding was just beautiful. I particularly loved the ceremony. I think I cried the whole time. I didn't pull out my camera once (they had hired someone) so it was nice to just enjoy the day. I did however snap a few with my phone.

Wedding day!
Sisters!
The brothers (Kris was really missed).

Cutting the cake. (Fun fact: the cake was made by the same bakery from 50 years ago and they replicated their first cake. LOVED that.)
