January 10, 2009 marked Grandpa Wilbur and Grandma Ella's 50th Wedding Anniversary! We traveled to South Dakota again last weekend to take part in the festivities. Sunday we had an open house at the nursing home. Afterwards, the family had a nice supper party in a room at the Moonlite, "Grandma and Grandpa's restaurant".
The whole gang. Who knew that having just two sons would produce such a large family?!?!
At ages 83 and 85, still a good-looking couple!
Serving or snacking, Jerry and Aaron?
I snapped this shot before the open house even started; in all, we had 86 guests visit to congratulate Grandma and Grandpa. Late last Sunday evening, I went through the greeting cards that they received--well over 50 or 60 of them!

As Grandpa put it ~ we all had a wonderful day being together with family and friends. Their marriage has been a wonderful example to all of us. Grandma loved all of the attention. She's still talking about it. Thanks for all the work you and Jill put into the special day. We love you both for your efforts! You girls are also setting great examples for those younger than you.
Hugs! Mom & Dad
