Birthday Surprises!
July 21st was my wonderful mom's 50th birthday! (I know you're thinking why did I wait so long, right?) I was a busy bee these past few weeks! Anyways back to the important stuff! She is such a great mom! My mom is and has always been very involved in my life. I appreciate everything she does! Last year when my dad turned 50 she planned a surprise party! He LOVED it! My dad had absolutely no idea. It was great! My mom is such a giver so she loved planning that party. We couldn't pull off an entire surprise party for my mom because she is so quizzative that she would have found out but we had something else up our sleeve. She has 2 sisters and a brother. Her sisters live down south, one in Texas and one in Louisiana so we only see them about once a year! We get to see her brother quite often because he only lives about 3 hours away. The Friday before her birthday her sisters flew in to Des Moines! Her sisters wanted to surprise her at work. She already ruined that plan because she took a vacation day! She had made plans to go on a motorcycle ride with her brother-in-law and his wife. So we used that as a cover-up. This way she thought she had big plans that day! Needless to say she was SO surprised when she found out her sisters were in town! The party was such a success! The only thing missing was my little sister. She was away in New Orleans for the youth group gathering! She had a blast but we missed her during all the birthday excitement!
