Well, we pulled one off on my Mom! About a week after her real birthday, my dad and siblings and I decided to throw a surprise party for her at my apartment. We had 14 cars parked in my driveway and front and back yards. It was a very tight apartment to say the least, but well worth the gathering of all the family.

For some reason, this picture cracks me up. If you look closely you can see her eyes straining to look at the cars and the total confusion that washed over her face!!

Here's our ever-growing family at Lloyd's bar!
And now for some random shots. Sorry if I didn't get you in here! There were many people here!


By the way...we had an up and rising celebrity in the house!!! Lil' T is his stage name!



When it's all said and done, it was a nice little party. Hopefully Mom will remember it forever and look back on it as a good time.
Earlier in the day, Matt, Jen, Amy, Jimmy and I went to the Blue and White game. We attempted to stay for a bit, but only ended up being there for a short time. It was worth the trip into the busy town for a cone of "peanut butter fudge cluster" creamery ice cream!


What a busy, tiring day.
Great party, Jess! I also had fun briefly attending the Blue & White game and going to the creamery. Long and tiring day, but definitely worth it. I'm glad Cathy was surprised!
ReplyDeleteI could go for one of those lemonade and strawberry rum drinks right now.
I was totally surprised. What a nice party. Was so glad to see everyone but especially my 3 children and their spouses and grandchildren. I couldn't have asked for a nicer party. Thanks again to all who helped plan it...
ReplyDeleteI've been horrible at checking people's blogs so I just saw this! Great pictures! That was a fun time. I can't wait to party at Lloyd's bar again!
