Surprise Party!

Last night my sister threw a surprise 40th birthday party for her husband at my house. She told him to be here at 6:30 for MY little boy's birthday (he turned 5 Monday). Friends and family started arriving at 6:00. They parked across the street and brought lawn chairs, cake and homemade ice-cream (the winning recipe from the Marshall Co. Fair "Crank Off").

After 2 false starts, the unsuspecting birthday boy arrived. We smiled as he winced in pain of being the center of attention of the hoopla in his honor.

We ate Jimmy John's sandwiches and sat around a campfire as the sun went down. The kids played heartily on the playground and in the pool. And poor Kevin had to accept being the man of the hour.

Happy birthday!

Thanks so much for being willing to host the big party:) It was fun and I think even Kevin enjoyed it. I appreciate all you and Ben did in having the party at your house. I owe ya!

*Thanks for getting the party photos on the Walgreens site. As usual, I'll order quite a few. Derek's party and kindergarten pictures were good as well!
