Scot's parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary May 1, 2009. The celebration was held Sunday, May 3, 2009 at the Arts & Entertainment Center in Red Bay, Al. This was a day we all had anticipated for several months. The rain came down and the thunder roared for a while yesterday, but it turned out to be a not so rainy afternoon. There was a big turnout of family and friends. The guestbook says 140 people attended, but we know of some that didn't register, so we are guessing around 150 people joined us for the celebration. 
I am sharing some pictures that I took, but due to mingling and not being able to get good pictures due to so many chandeliers and mirrors, I will be sure to post more pictures in a few weeks when we get the professional photo's. Food consisted of chicken salad on croissant rolls, ham and turkey sandwiches, fruit tray with dip, cheese and cracker tray, and of course wedding cake, homemade mints, nuts, punch, and water.

I am thankful for my in-laws. First of all, I'm thankful to them for raising such a fine young man that would become my husband and an outstanding daddy to our children. I'm thankful for them being a fine example of faithfulness to God, family, church, and friends.
Congratulations to Gordon and Nora Ann, my wonderful father and mother in law.
