My mom and dad, Big J and I, and my brother, SIL, and two nieces had a beautiful evening tonight to celebrate (albeit 2 weeks late due to weather and father butt fall) their 55th wedding anniversary.

Tonight, Big J shared Oysters on the half shell with Grandpa, and lobster tail for the main and shared Cherries Jubilee with Grandma. He thought the flaming of the desert was way cool.

I had several alcohol beverages and it has take me 20 minutes to type this clenaly.




Good thing Dad was paying :shock:

We had many laughs and put many good memories in place for years to come.

God Bless Jim and Jean for 55 + years with more to go.

There have been far too many sad posts on this Bored lately. It's good to have someone posting some good news for a change.

Congratulations to them and to you!!

Congratulations to your folks. Mine celebrated their 60th last June. And that flaming dessert was the subject of a Final Jeopardy a week and a half ago:

CULINARY HISTORY: This fruit dessert was created to celebrate Queen Victoria's decades on the British throne

Congrats as well to your parents, Trish.

Poor Queen Victoria - all those years on the throne. She must have done a lot of reading.

Congratulations to your parents!

Brave of your Dad to foot the bill when a teenage boy has free reign of the menu!

Mine likes the buffet at my Dad's country Club.

Safer price wise than ala carte. Although I have no idea what they pay per head, but it still must be cheaper than Son1111 at the crab/shrimp area.

Many more years to Jim and Jean!
