Last night was my parents’ silver anniversary. 25 years of married bliss... well, maybe 5 years before I was born. It was a night planned 2 months ahead by my dad as a surprise for my mum.
Everybody was in the hotel salon room by 6 o’clock and my dad was due to bring my mum at 7. When it was time the lights were dimmed and everyone got ready to surprise her. When she walked in it literally took about 5 seconds before we yelled surprise. My mum had already seen the setup but we all just stared at her while waiting for our cue. Then my cousin’s band joined in with the Congratulations Song and the party began.
That night made my mum very happy. The band played love songs all night, people got up to do speeches, gifts got given and there was even a conga line at one point.
