Morgan Family Summer Reunion: 50th Wedding Anniversary

On June 11, 2021, my parents reached the amazing milestone of their golden wedding anniversary - 50 years!! Yes, this truly was the most momentous occasion that our Morgan family has ever had the privilege to celebrate. And celebrate we did, but in the typical Morgan way: with minimal fanfare but an abundance of love. We enjoyed a lovely celebratory dinner of ribeye steaks with all the fixings, and the kids did a great job decorating the backyard with some fun patio decorations and lots of candles surrounding the entire pool. It was a beautiful evening topped off by an adventurous experience in the kitchen creating MawMaw's famous caramel cake, a Morgan family favorite. The cake wasn't pretty but it was oh-so-delicious (and sinful!) and truly made with love. The entire evening was as typical of a special Morgan family night as we could get - perfect for celebrating MeMe and Grandaddy's amazing milestone day.

After our yummy dinner, we all gathered to recognize the special occasion with a custom memory video that Madison created. She had managed to gather so many photos from my parents' lives together and put them into a beautiful format we could all enjoy. Such a neat way to conclude the evening by reminiscing about the incredible life my parents have built over their 50 years (plus) together.

But the celebration didn't end there. We decided to make sure we honored and commemorated MeMe and Grandaddy's golden anniversary by hosting an activity that had NEVER been done before in our history of Morgan family get-togethers. More to come, but here's a quick sneak peek...
