40th Anniversary !!

We went to Knoxville last weekend to give my parents a 40th anniversary surprise party. It was so fun and they were very surprised!
BUT we acted like we came so we could go to the Biscuit Festival! It was AMAZING! Clay and I took Jack, Madeline and Maeve and we ate LOTS of biscuits.
 There were restaurants from all over the Southeast who had booths and you could eat biscuits at them all! Clay was in heaven! Benton's bacon teamed up with Blackberry Farms and their bacon biscuit was so yummy!
 Tupelo Honey Cafe had a pimento cheese biscuit. Clay ate two and got three to go! on our way home, we stopped in Asheville at Tupelo Honey Cafe for dinner. Well worth the wait!
 There was live music and the kids wanted to sit and watch.
 But they didn't sit long- the dancing began shortly after!

 And then it was party time! Mom and Dad were truly surprised. It was such a great night and so fun to have so many of their friends who have known them for 10, 20, 30 plus years!

 My mom's sister, Maureen, flew in from NY. We "hid" her at the DOnaldson's house until party time.Another fun surprise! My dad surprised my mom the weekend before (their actual anniversary) and took her to NYC. She said she couldn't handle any more surprises!

We loved celebrating Mom and Dad and are so thankful for them!
