My 60th Birthday Surprise

By Sandy Wirth


My family planned a surprise 60th birthday party for me in 2020 and because my daughter has access to my FOREVER account, and I had digitized our old scrapbooks and scanned older photos, she was able to get tons of fun old photos from my childhood to present day to put on display at my party! My friends enjoyed seeing images of me way back in the day before most of them knew me, and my sisters and mom enjoyed the nostalgia too! It really made the day more special.

My daughter also found a photo of my dad and me dancing (and crying) at my wedding. Since we had lost him just earlier that year, she had a canvas made of that picture - so he would be with us in spirit on my birthday.

Another fun photo find by my daughter - a picture of me (at almost the same age as my daughter) where we look nearly identical! Super fun!

With all of the photos displayed and shared for everyone, FOREVER made my birthday special and easy!
