Surprise!

My wonderful husband totally outdid himself this year for my birthday. Last year when I turned 29 I warned him that next year I would be turning the BIG 3-0 and I expected something bigger than a card and bouquet of flowers. Now don't get me wrong, I LOVE when he gets me flowers, but I just felt like turning 30 deserved something big. Well, I wasn't expecting the party he threw for me.

On Friday, March 27 we had called a babysitter to come because we had our Young Couples Bible study that night. During the day he called me and said he ran into our babysitter at school and asked her to come early so we could grab dinner before Bible study. The sitter was supposed to arrive at 6:00 and when it was 6:15 and she finally got there and Kevin still wanted to go to a sit down restaurant for dinner before our 7:00 bible study I started to get a little suspicious. But I was puzzled what he had planned because I didn't think he would cancel Bible study. Well he did! When we arrived at the restaurant we headed over to the bar because "we can get in and out faster at the bar". But Kevin bypassed the bar and opened the door to their private room and there were 26 of our friends waiting to say surprise! It was a great night. I felt very loved and it was fun to spend the evening with so many friends. Thanks Honey!



Not the most flattering picture of me, but I wanted to include it because it was a surprise and because you can see Kevin talking to someone in the background. There was a lady right outside the room and when we walked up to the door she said "Are you looking for the surprise party?" And then when I walked in Kevin said "Yeah, it's for her!" I guess the lady felt pretty stupid the rest of the night.

The beautiful table. We had appetizers (some of my favorites) and Kevin had selected 2 salad and 4 entree options for everyone. It was yummy!


Enjoying some drinks.
Thanks Kevin for loving me and throwing me a great 30th birthday party!
