Celebrating 25 Years of God's Goodness

We pulled it off! After several weeks of planning, keeping our mouths shut and lots of prayer, dad and mom were successfully surprised for their 25th wedding anniversary party! Thursday, Mr. And Mrs. Schmidt took Mom and Dad out for the day. Supposedly they were out for Mrs. Schmidt's birthday surprise. The Schmidt children stayed behind with us to accomplish the mission of overhauling the house and setting up/cooking for the evenings festivities in only six hours! We were expecting over one hundred guests and our home was a wreck! In the afternoon several more helping hands arrived (Tonya, Noelle, Grace, Aimee, Diana and Regina Hawley and Esther a friend from Korea). The mad rush to complete the impossible was underway and six o'clock came way too soon! Our guests arrived around six and the transportation that held the unsuspecting couple came shortly after (How the Schmidts kept mom and dad out all day I'll never know). Everyone "hid" in the backyard and as mom and dad strolled around the corner "SURPRISE" was yelled out! Imagine looking at over a hundred people "sitting" on your porch! I still can't believe they didn't figure it out. The evening was filled with yummy food, wonderful fellowship, singing, a round of "the newly wed game" (participants were drawn from a jar: The Horns, Goforths, Seargeants and Jacksons). The evening was concluded with a short film with photographs of mom and dad from childhood till now and a time for folks to give testimony of how the Lord has blessed them through mom and dad's life. It was such a blessing to witness the love that so many others have for our parents. Tomorrow is the actual date for the big day but we sure had fun celebrating it last week. A special thanks to all those that helped me make this whole event possible! To list all the names and the ways they helped would be impossible. Your support and love was a tremendous blessing. Another special thanks to all those who contributed to the vacation fund for mom and dad...I have great hopes of a fun trip for them!

    Wait! Not yet! I haven't posted a comment on this one. :-P

    Great pictures, Hubers! We were so glad to be there for your 25th anniversary. I pray that each new year will be filled with the Lord's blessings in your lives.

    Josh (for the 4-Wheelers)

    PS. How was the beach? Have any stories about jellyfish, sharks, or wild, out-of-control surfers? ;)

    Alright, if there's one thing that drives me buggy, it's anonymous comments! That said, I'll calm down and answer Josh.

    We ended up staying home. No beach today...a bit "chilly". So unfortunately no stories to excite any interest. I really hope we can go SOON!
