50 Years Together . . . Priceless

On November 7th I had the privilege of attending a very special event. It was Huey and Mary Weatherl's 50th Anniversary Celebration hosted by their two beautiful daugthers and sons-in-law, Linda and Doug Jordan and Rhonda and Bruce Cole. One thing I know for sure this lovely couple did right, they raised two gorgeous girls who know how to throw a party! The evening was magical! Friends and family gathered at The Kyle House, a lovely venue in Bryan, Texas. Throughout the slideshow you will see images of the many family members and friends who gathered to honor Huey and Mary on their 50th Anniversary. The food, prepared by The Kyle House, was delectable, and you will see the amazing wedding cake which was topped by their original cake topper from their wedding! This celebration was uniquely both elegant and fun, and while those two descriptions don't always go hand in hand, on this night, they did! The theme of the evening was "50 Years Together . . . Priceless!". The tables were adorned with framed photos from their wedding, and there was a beautiful scrapbook full of wedding pictures. You will see some cute images of their three precious grandchildren, Wyatt, Hunter and Haley. Both Hunter and Wyatt gave marvelous speeches in honor of their Grandparent's lives. Among the many people present, you will see David Smith, a devoted family friend who they say is the son they never had. I hope as you view this slideshow, you will capture a bit of the magic we all felt that evening as we celebrated the wonderful Mr. and Mrs. Huey Weatherl!

So sorry I missed it. I keep wanting all these folks to write down a list of what it takes to make it 50 years. It seems like such a rarity these days. We need the secrets. Mimi and Pa are on like 58 I think.
