50 Golden Years in Laughter & Love: Time to Party!

Hey there, friends and family!

It's time to celebrate an incredible milestone: my parents' 50th wedding anniversary! And what better way to honor their half-century of love than by sending them on a Hawaiian dream vacation filled with unforgettable adventures?

So, I've put together this Go Fund Me page to give all of you the chance to contribute to their tropical treasure hunt in whatever way your heart desires. Whether you want to host them on a breathtaking helicopter tour of the Kilauea volcano , treat them to a magical night swim with Manta Rays , or gift them a stunning anniversary photoshoot , there are countless ways to make their trip extra special.

Picture this: Susan and Eric cruising around the Big Island in a sleek, open-air Red Jeep , indulging in 100% Hawaiian-grown coffee ☕, and staying in an adorable guest house just a block from the sand . They could be sipping frozen beverages from hollow pineapples , savoring delicious macadamia nut coffee drinks , and unwinding with a surprise Lomi-Lomi couples massage right in their bungalow ‍♀️‍♂️. The possibilities are endless!

Now, let's be real - my parents are the most frugal folks around. They'd never splurge on these experiences for themselves. But that's where we come in! By pooling our resources, we can give them the gift of indulgence and adventure, forcing them out of their comfort zones in the best way possible.

I know we all have our own budgets to consider, so please don't feel pressured to give more than you can. Every contribution, whether it's $5, $50, or $500, brings them one step closer to the anniversary getaway of their dreams. And if you can't contribute financially, no worries at all! Just leave them a heartfelt note on this page to let them know how much their love story means to you.

Speaking of their love story... can we just take a moment to marvel at the magic of their connection? These two lovebirds still hold hands on the sofa every night, keeping the spark of chivalry alive after all these years. Their laughter fills the room whenever they're together, and witnessing their bond grow stronger with each passing decade has been a true blessing.

Having Susan and Eric as my parents is a gift beyond measure, and helping them celebrate this momentous occasion is an absolute joy. Despite the odds stacked against them, their devotion has proven unshakable, and their love story is one for the ages.

So let's come together as a community and give them the 50th-anniversary celebration they deserve! Whether it's through a monetary contribution, a heartfelt message, or simply spreading the word about this GoFundMe page, every bit of support brings us closer to giving Susan and Eric the trip of a lifetime.

They'll receive all of your generous gifts a few days before their anniversary, Wednesday, May 8, 2024, as they depart on their Hawaiian adventure to celebrate. Let's show them how much their incredible journey together means to us all!

Thank you so much for being a part of this special surprise. Together, we can make their golden anniversary a shimmering, unforgettable celebration of love. ✨

With gratitude and aloha spirit,

Their two daughters, Heidi & Holly, and their nine grandkids:

Lucas, Avery, Pixie, Jaxon, Joziah, Ezra, Oliver, Hudson, & Austin.
