Yesterday we meet at Gold Corral in Layton to celebrate Joel's Grandparents 50th Wedding Anniversary. My Mother-in-Law's father passed away when she was very young. Grandma Mona met Dudley later in life...needless to say, they got married and he raised grandma's 5 kids as his own.
Yes, I'm sure you can already guess that there was A LOT of us there yesterday to help them celebrate. 5 kids...with their kids...and their kid's kids...there's even a few great great grandkids! Yikes! The family completely filled the back meeting room.
Grandpa and Grandma are the cutest couple...Grandma's got flare, spunk and style that's all her own...stern looking Grandpa is really just a giant teddy bear that loves to tease. I adore them both! I wish them many more years of happiness.
It was great to see all of Joel's family...his cousins are some of my favorite people. They don't get together often enough and it's always fun to spend time catching up. However, we will all meet together again in just a few short weeks....Bianca's homecoming is next month! WOW! I can't believe that she's already coming home from her mission :) It's going to be great to see her again and to hear all about her adventures!
