Dean and Kathie's 40th Anniversary Party

We hosted a 40th Anniversary party at our house yesterday for Keith's parents. We had 30 family members here to celebrate the special day. The picture above is of the kids getting in on the party preparations. They are actually really good at shucking corn. We had 36 ears to shuck!

Trying to get a picture with all the grandkids...

It was tough getting all 9 children to look at the camera - we almost succeeded!

Soren was escaping!



Their gift was a family scrapbook. All of their children and their spouses wrote out their testimonies and presented it to them in this scrapbook.

Playing in the inflatable jumper - Keith took these pictures from the roof!

The grandkids wanted Grandma and Grandpa to celebrate their anniversary by jumping in the bouncer

Kraig was clinking a glass just like they do at receptions

The kids got to jump with Grandma and Grandpa

Kaitlyn drew a picture of Grandma and Grandpa on the patio door with window markers. So we took a picture of them peeking through their pictures.
