April 28th was my parents 60th Anniversary. What a wonderful example of love they have been to all that know them. What fun it was to honor them with a Popcorn Party! Mom and Dad love simple things. No big fuss, no going out to dinner, or to a show, or a cruise..just a family gathering of their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Dinner of Lasagna and Salad. Then the popcorn party! Yes as kids growing up our favorite thing was watching "Saturday Night At The Movies" and having a big bowl of popcorn on the knitted blanket in the middle of our living room. And for an extra special treat we would have Shasta Soda! In honor of our favorite things, we had blankets on the floor of the cultural hall at the church, with popcorn and soda. We had skits...all 4 of us kids are hams...and watched old home movies! My grandson wondered why there wasn't any sound...yep, old home movies..50's and 60's 8mm. Wonderful memories then and now. Thanks Mom and Dad for the love you have shown to all of us, and the example of love you are.
