My parents have been married for 50 years! What an accomplishment. We couldn't let this milestone go uncelebrated. We were able to get all of my siblings together as well as their families, with the exception of Azure and Myrna (Azure was sick) and Emmi, who is on her mission. That's quite a feat for such a large family!
We started the day with breakfast and hanging out at our house.
 |
| Katelyn spent Friday night camping with some mission friends and brought them home for breakfast too! |
 |
| These two brought their families all the way from Pennsylvania (Elizabeth) and Georgia (Scott)!! |
Then we headed up to Green Canyon to have our family pictures taken. Love how they turned out!
