65 Years

Jeff & I figured out that he would be 100 if we made it to 65 years of marriage.  Oh, the woes of getting married later in life.  We grandparents (my dad's parents) just celebrated their 65th anniversary and anyone who knows my Aunt Jan knows she will do it up big.  I'm pretty sure the entire town of Cozad, NE was at their house at some point in the weekend.  There was not a lack of food or activity.  She knows how to throw a party!

Cousins - I had to bribe the boys with candy to get them all smiling.

Aunt Jan rented a mobile gaming bus.  The kids, and some adults, loved this.

Cousin Brandee gettin her groove on.

This entertained the kids for hours.

Aunt Jan also bought 65 mini hot air balloons and planned on lighting and releasing them all to celebrate 65 years of marriage.  However, they were hard to light and it was windy so it was hard to tell where they'd go and no one wanted to be responsible for a house fire or field fire.

It would have been pretty cool to release all 65 if it would have worked.
