There are not too many couples nowadays who make it to their 50th wedding anniversary.  But I am happy to say that my in-laws are one the few who did! 

On September 2nd, Dwight & Ruth celebrated their Gold Anniversary!  On September 5th, they had their 50th Anniversary celebration, including a 4-tier anniversary cake which I had the honor and privilege to decorate for them.  

All of their children and their spouses prepared a full buffet which was enjoyed by all.  

We had a great turn out and everyone had a wonderful time!

Here are a few of the pictures that were taken of this very happy occasion:

What a blessing it is to be able to say that you’ve been married to the same person for 50 years and be able to celebrate this very special day.  I hope you’ve enjoyed sharing this day with us.  Our prayer is that they have many more years together.
