What a weekend. I’ve been planning this party for my parents for almost a year. This past Saturday, it finally happened.
My parents have been married for 25 years as of May 12, 2009. They’re hard working, wonderful people. As parents, they gave me everything and almost anything I ever wanted and needed. They recently opened a Bakery and Cafe (www.ninongspastries.com) in late 2008 and the shop has been taking all of their time. I get my love of parties from my mom, and I knew she wanted to have a party for their anniversary, but where would she even get the time to do it? She’s not only at the shop 50% of the time. The other 50% she works as a Realtor (which she’s proudly been doing for over 15 years).
So, I decided to take it upon myself to plan their anniversary for them. It was tough to keep it a secret, but thanks to the rest of the family we pulled it together. People came from out of town and from down the street. Everyone pitched in and I was touched to see how many people wanted to help. I couldn’t do it without them. It really shows me much my parents are loved by their friends. Even those that regretted they couldn’t make it were disappointed that they couldn’t come.
Just my camera alone took over 300 pictures. You can view more here: http://gallery.me.com/carissasolomon#100055
Congratulations Mom and Dad. I love you!
