Anniversary Gifts


When we cut the cake, the kids presented us with speeches both serious and fun (watch for You-Tube links), and Number One gave us a framed Pontifical Anniversary Blessing. My parents had one framed in our family home and I have wanted one for years. I was actually the one who found a way to procure one in a very round-about way, but Number One was responsible for transportation and framing. Isn't it just beautiful?


Then at home, in the evening, the kids gave us a very fancy coffee maker (since we break a coffee maker every 6 months or so) and then Number Two gave us a super special present she brought in her suitcase from Casablanca:
a traditional Moroccan Tea Set, complete with silver tray, silver teapot, glass cups and tea! A gorgeous gift, both from her and her fiance's parents. Thank You!

  1. Hi everybody this is Othman, First of all I'm very glad the party went well and that you liked your gifts! The video with Claudia and Isabelle is very nice and must have been wonderful for you parents!! :) I heard that the other speeches were really really nice too! A good gift from the children to celebrate all those years of commitment and good education! 25 years is quite a bit and i wish Claudia and I will be taking the same path as our parents. Wish you all all the best!!
