Some of us met up at buffet restaurant to celebrate the occasion. In addition to the copious amounts and variety of foods (especially sugar!) necessary for any festivity in our family...
You also need some cheery smiles...
Home-made cards from Great-Granddaughters...
A gorgeous, hand-quilted table runner made by your sister who can quilt like a fiend...
A husband willing to give impromptu speeches at the drop of a hat...
And the perfect gift for any 57th Anniversary Celebration!
Matching his and hers bottles of Heinz 57 Sauce!
I have no idea what I'm going to do next year. I can't think of anything that has a 58 in the title!
!!!! Happy Anniversary!!!! :)

ReplyDeleteOh Jenny Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteHow precious is this share this morning. I just love the smiles in the photos. Your parents are so precious. 57 years together. I love the Heinz 57 bottles, and so did they. Their faces are just truly priceless. Laughter all around for sure.
You are such a bundle of laughter and love. Looking at these photos I can truly see you get this from your parents. Yep you sure do.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful occasion with me this morning. The food and smiles look so wonderful.
Have a gorgeous Wednesday sweetie.
Many hugs and SO much love, Sherry
Woo Hoo 57 years! You are so right..just having the people they love celebrate with them is all they want for a present...
ReplyDeleteMost excellent, Matlock! Your mom looks confused by the Heinz 57. MWAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeleteYou had extra men there that I couldn't identify.
Wow...57 years....how awesome is that!!! I love the Heinz 57!~~~
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family and great celebration!!!
Thanks for sharing with us Jenny!!!
What a wonderful inspiration -- 57 years -- now that's something to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteI love the Heinz 57. Wish I'd thought of that when my parents had their 57th. Which was several moons ago. Know anything that has 101 on it because my father will be that old in November. *sigh* :)
ReplyDeleteThat Heinz 57 did a wonderful job of putting a smile on your dad's face, Jenny!
ReplyDeleteMaybe next year...50 empty wrappers of something you ate...50 ATE
I love my "Great" Uncle Marcel and my "Great" Aunt Rosalee. What a wonderful day with the family!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat party!
ReplyDeleteHow lucky for them and for all of you that they have set such an example. I have to say, your dad looks like a hoot! You can imagine I have a real soft spot for "parent joy" these days.
ReplyDeleteMy dad is on his way here...will arrive tomorrow (he's driving...eek). My dad is a hoot too!
Happy Anniversary, to your mom and dad. Great pictures and wonderful smiles I see in all of them. That was really cleaver giving the 57 steak sauces. :) I bet you will think of something just as clever for their 58th too. Hugs
ReplyDeleteHeinz 57... the gift that keeps on giving:) Love that beautiful couple, all smiles!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day and Happy Anniversary to the Parents!
Home made cards from great granddaughters and a family get
ReplyDeletetogether make any occassion extra fun. Happy 57 to your parents.
Jenny, your parents look sooooo happy! What a wonderful memory for them.
ReplyDeleteHow awesome!! 57 years, that is incredible.
ReplyDeleteHow awesome!! 57 years, that is incredible.
ReplyDeletewow! what a wonderful year!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the best anniversary ever! Here's to wishing them many more years to come!
ReplyDeleteThat's so awesome! I'm guessing the 57 sauce was from you!
ReplyDeleteCopious amounts of sugar indeed! They had m&ms and cupcakes and ice cream? I want to eat there! LOL!
I laughed so hard at the Heinz bottles....ONLY YOU JENNY!!!
ReplyDeleteLove that table runner too, so pretty.
You have a lovely family. Congrats to your parents!
They are lucky to have raised a family that knows how to show their love and gratitude. (Heinz 57 and all!)
ReplyDelete=)
They look so sweet and happy together! My in-laws love each other dearly but they are so crabby to each other!! My hubby and I gave each other permission to "head slap" the other if we start acting like that!! I hope at 57 years we are still holding hands and smooching like we do now at 19!!
ReplyDeleteLove the Heinz 57!!
Wow, what a very special day for your parents and how wonderful to have all their family there with them to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteIt's always great to see family and freinds getting together to celebrate. It's often hard to get everyone together at the same time. The photos will be memories your family will have forever...
ReplyDeleteAw, that's so sweet! :D
ReplyDeleteI love the matching Heinz--awesome!!! :P
well i guess i could come and sing and dance for them next year. i was born in 1958. i know that is a stretch but hey it could work! what lucky parents you have. all of the family there to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to them!!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful party and Happy Anniversary to them.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing milestone! I absolutely love the Heinz 57 bottles! I bet they did too. There is no way in heck a couple can stay together for 57 years if they don't have a sense of humor :) 58? That might be a tough one, but I have no doubt that you will think of the perfect icon for next year too. Kat
ReplyDeleteyou are so clever Jenny....you must keep your family on their toes all the time...trying to figure out what you will come up with next...Happy Anniversary Jenny's Mom and Dad....
ReplyDeleteLove seeing a couple that has grown older (not old!) together. I'm sure they've weathered some storms, but they've obviously done wonderful things to have such a loving family!
ReplyDeleteThat is so wonderful - 57 years and still in love. Not many people can say that. Happy anniversary to them.
ReplyDeletesandie
Congrats to your parents!!!
ReplyDeleteHeinz 57! LOL How cute is that? And homemade cards are the best ever. Love that runner. It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Congratulations to your parents - that's an accomplishment. My parents celebrated 59 this year, so next year will be a big one, God willing.
