Had hubby's surprise Bday party this weekend...and he was surprised!! We walked into the restaurant and I could see everyone at a large table at the back (we had over 20 people). I'm walking in front of Pete and he's getting confused as to why the waiter is bringing us to the back of the restaurant...clearly its packed and there is no place for us to sit. And then he saw his friend Dan...sitting next to Wray...and his parents...and my dad..."Surprise!" It was awesome! He was in shock for a good 10 minutes before he finally turned to me and said "You sneak!".

The meal was great. They made him wear this obnoxious bday cake hat. And the cake was perfect. "Older than Dirt". Yeah...I'm in trouble.

And then everyone came back to the house. Pete was saying "we don't have anything back at the house for all these people..." and I informed him that I had chips in the trunk of my car and our friend brought a couple of cases of beer. We were prepared! Everyone stayed late and I think all had a good time.

I'm so happy!

Nice job it's great when I surprise works out!

 

[CoCosMom]

Sounds like a great time, and so happy he was surprised! Now you have to be on the look out for the retaliation, lol.

Glad it all went so well. I always wanted to throw a surprise party for my hubby but the people I'd invite are mostly family and no fun at all. lol

 

[TobysTrix]

Very cool, sounds like you did an excellent job!

Aren't you glad it's over, though? I planned a major surprise for my husband's 40th (which went perfectly). It was really fun, but I was also incredibly stressed out about the whole thing. My 40th is in two months - I told him I want a party but not a surprise. We'll see, payback and all of that may come into play...

It was so stressfull...never mind keeping the secret, but explaining why I was up til 1:00 a.m. on Friday night mopping...getting to the phone first to make the fake reservations...sneaking out to get party snacks and keeping them hidden...It was a lot of work, but I loved it. I am just so happy he really was surprised. That is not easy to pull off with my man.

Yeah...payback is coming I'm sure.

Glad you had a nice time. It's hard to get the surprise sometimes.

 

[CJs Mom]

Nice job! I'm glad it went well for you. You really put a lot of thought and effort into this.
