Surprise 60th Birthday!










Happy Birthday MOM! So my sisters and I decided that my mom needed to have a birthday party for her 60th and if we told her so she wouldn't have let us do it so we decided to take it into our own hands. My sister LaTesa was the one who actually was the planner for most of it. So props to her. Her Birthday was September 5th. Lance and I drove up to Bountiful friday night and stayed with my sister so my mom wouldn't know we were there. We had to park down and across the street and be very careful that she didn't come over. Well sure enough she called me sister and she was only a couple minutes away from her house, needless to say I was in the middle of cooking for the party and Lance was downstairs watching a movie with my niece Natalie. I yelled for Lance to hurry we had to leave right then my mom was on her way over so we snuck out the back door and watched around the corner of the house til my mom drove up. When we waited and decided that the coast was clear we unlocked her gate and started slowly down the driveway behind the truck to make sure she was already in the house. As we started to dart across the driveway we notice the blinds in Natalies room fly up and we dart back to the truck wondering who in the heck had thought of that bright idea as we were trying to get away. So we wait a few more minutes and then dart across the driveway across the street into the circle where we had parked our car. We got away but it sure was nerve racking. Later that night my mom and aunt since they are twins thought they were just going to dinner with my sister and my cousin. Low and behold they were surprised when they showed up to the park and there were family and friends there. It turned out to be a great time and they haven't killed us yet for letting everyone know how old they are! Here is their cake with a picture of both of them when they were young. Look at all those candles! It was on FIRE!!!
