Savannah was surprised with her old yearbook photo 

She marked her 50th year with her close family, including her husband and their two children at home as she celebrated her birthday just a few days after Christmas.

While it was a "perfect" birthday, the star admitted that it was bittersweet in a heartfelt post at the time, as her late father was constantly in her thoughts – having passed away at the age of 49, and never making it to her current age.

"So I treasure this gift of life and remember you always. And thank god for a half century of His kindness and grace and blessing," she concluded.
