Matt's parents celebrated their 40th anniversary in March and wanted to do something special in honor of their anniversary. So...they planned a party at their house this weekend...well, what they didn't know was that their children planned a surprise party for them on Friday, the night before their party.
From Paris to Atlanta to Jackson to Gulfport and many many e-mails and phone calls later, we did it...we surprised them with a 40th anniversary party on Friday night. They knew something was going on, but they had no clue what and really were surprised.
Happy 40th Anniversary Pop Pop and MeMe...we enjoyed celebrating with you!
Matt and I got to do the "fun" stuff...we did invitations, dessert, center pieces, and the photo table...let's just say, I've become a HUGE fan of burlap and mason jars.
Anna Lauren waiting on Pop Pop and MeMe to arrive...
Cooper waiting on Pop Pop and MeMe to arrive...
Jim and Kate brought them...blind folded that is!
SURPRISE!
The 5 year olds quickly found the dirt...
The "family"...Matt's cousin took some pictures with her camera...I'm hoping she has a better one.
There were a couple of these hats floating around because the bridesmaids wore hats in their wedding 40 years ago. Two of the bridesmaids wore them at the party...
Pop Pop and Cooper...this little man was a trooper. He got tired around 9:30 so I took him for a walk in the stroller. He quickly fell asleep and slept in his stroller until time to go. I was so thankful the kids were on the BEST behavior!
This little man was happy as long as he had ice in a cup...
All smiles as she listened to the toasts...
Pop Pop, Kelly, Kate, Matt, and MeMe...and Cooper begging for Daddy to pick him up...ha ha!

I love Matt's mom's face when her blindfold came off! So sweet. I love all of your decorations, too!
