After an accomplishment this big....they definitely deserved a PARTY!
Grandma and Grandpa Jensen celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary December 17th 2009.
January 2nd we got together as a family to celebrate! We had a night full of Food, Talents, pictures (old, and new), laughs, and Dancing.
We even had dance instructors come and teach us the swing, the twist, fox trot, and a whole lot more. It was a blast watching everyone laugh all night long.
Great Grandma Nana (Grandma's Mom), Grandma, and Grandpa Watching all the "talets" (I will be posting videos of some of the talents - I hope shortly)
As a gift to Grandpa and Grandma Holly put together a tribute book that she made on shutterfly. Starting with Grandpa and Grandma's baby picture, going through their dating, wedding, each child being born, family activities, and ending with tributes from all of their children and grandchildren.
Here are a few of the pages dedicated to their engagement. It was a lot of fun being able to see pictures of them when they were young.
Aunt Sue put together the decorations and center pieces. They were amazing. The Theme was "Lost In The 50s Tonight" and "One Enchanted Evening" (their song). She decorated with old style coke and orange crush bottles, records, candy from the 50s and all sorts of other fun stuff.
She even had their cake recreated for them. With their original cake toppers, and had made doves and flowers. They even made the top layer of the cake gluten free! Grandma was able to have her first bite of cake in the last 2 years.

It was such a great evening full of fun and celebrations as a family.Congrats Grandma and Grandpa, and may there be many more to come!
