We recently had the amazing
privilege of celebrating Marc's grandparent's 65
th wedding anniversary. A lot of planning went into the big shin-dig and everyone made an
effort to be there. The party took place the day of their anniversary at the center where they live in an apartment. Before the party all the
grand kids worked to put together a book with memories of their grandparents as they were growing up. We added lots of pics (old & new) and gave them the book at the party. I love spending time around the "
DePauw" family... so many great people--it's
truly a
testament to Grandpa & Grandma
DePauw!
I must admit, when I actually saw this picture, I was almost shocked at how BIG the whole group is. 5 kids with spouses, 18
grand kids (8 married), and 12 great-
grand kids (with more on the way). All but three of Marc's cousins mad it to the party (2 of them lived out of state and 1 was in a wedding).

Sadie loved playing with the decorations--here she is showing us the "65".
The dining room where the party was held opened out to a beautiful sitting area with a bridge and some fish ponds. The kids loved playing outside and exploring!
Jaren and Emery left the day before the party to drive from CO. We were so excited to see them when they arrived at the party!
Sadie remembered
Atalie from our Christmas party last December--she was excited to see her again!
