A group of siblings teamed up to re-create a childhood photo and surprised their parents on their 50th anniversary with the hilarious and heartwarming result.
When the siblings surprised their parents, they captured a video of their reactions, and the TikTok video post has since gone viral with over 947,000 views.
Tawnya Van Houten told Storyful that the professional photo they re-created, with her brother in a button-down shirt and cardigan and she and her sisters in a blue-and-black sweater, a pink-and-black dress, and a sky blue dress, was captured 34 years ago. She and her three siblings went as far as reproducing their outfits from the 1980s.
"My siblings and I were ages 5, 9, 14, and 16," Van Houten said. "For our parents' 50th wedding anniversary, we decided to recreate the iconic 80's look to surprise our parents. I sewed up some of our childhood outfits and thrifted our brother's sweater."
