Happy 50th Golden Celebration Papa & Mama!

Today we celebrate 50 years of marriage for Mr. & Mrs. Samoza.. Papa & Mama! That's quite a feat and I'm so glad to be able to witness such a thing! Congratulations and here's to 50 more years!!

It started off with a renewal of vows at the Albertson's Wedding Chapel (yes, Albertson's.. and I have no idea if there's a relation to the grocery store). All the boys were to wear a shade of blue, Papa's favorite color, and all the girls were to wear either a mint or spring green, Mama's favorite color.

It was a beautiful ceremony. Most of the footage though were videos. I do have a pic of them with the cord and veil..


Afterwards we headed to Roy's for lunch. The place was pretty much open just for us! Totally cool. I guess their hours are only for dinner.

Here are the lovebirds at their table..


There was also a wonderful surprise for them. All of their grand children sang "Can't Help Falling In Love" while Jeric played it on the guitar. It's their song and I thought it was super cute that they all did that for them. Jeric said he totally butchered it on the guitar though. Hahaha. Of course, I didn't pick up on that. I never do.

Now it was time for appetizers and toasts!

For appetizers.. (left to right) salmon sushi roll, shrimp skewers, bbq pork ribs, and lobster dumplins!

All were very tasty!

After most of the toasts were given, it was time to dig in.

A salad to start.. and then everyone got to pick their main meal from a set list of 3. Me and Jeric both chose the filet mignon. And then there was cake.

Here's Papa and Mama cutting their pretty cake..


It was a beautiful ceremony.. a wonderful celebration.. and delicious food. We're so glad to be there and celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary!!
