We have an amazing family, have I ever mentioned that? Both sides of the family are amazing! My parents have been married almost 35 years, Jared's parents about the same, and both our Grandparents have been married for 60+ years. It's such a testimony and Jared and I can't wait to make it to 60 years!
This week was my Grandparents, Gigi & Gpa's, 60th anniversary. We celebrated "Holman" style. Gigi said she just wanted a low key anniversary but would love us to come to dinner at Holman. So we did. Here's a pic of the family and their cake, she did want a cake:).
Since she didn't want a big deal made, Nana and I brainstormed some cute ideas. I came up with a singing telegram! So Elvis celebrated with us! Gigi was a bit surprised:).

Here is what his poem said:
Burt & Jean Johnson
60th Anniversary
This is Burt & Jean’s special day. So we want to celebrate in every way.
They are the special ones. So today we want them to have a lot of
fun.
We want Blizzard Burt and Jean to laugh and
giggle. So we sent Elvis to give
them a wiggle.
Jean watch out for the cactus. They really hurt and Elvis wouldn’t
lie.
Don’t mess with Burt & Jean when they are
playing cards because they are quite the pair.
This is Burt & Jean’s 60th
anniversary and their love grows stronger with each new year with all the joy
and maybe one tear.
We care about Burt & Jean very much because
they give our lives their loving touch.
We know they will always care because for us, they
have always been there.
As parents, they were the best. We wouldn’t trade them for any of the
rest.
We want this anniversary to be the best one of
their lives because we will love them forever and forever be their devoted
family. But most important Burt
& Jean will be in our hearts forever!
Happy Anniversary from the family!

| Happy 60th Gigi & Gpa! |
Elvis came; gave them some balloons, hats, necklaces, kisses, roses; read a poem; sang a little song; and we all laughed and giggled! The Holman crew sure enjoyed it as did I!
