Surprise!!!

I knew I had a surprise 30th birthday party coming...I was preparing myself to be ready anywhere I went because I didn't know when or where it would occur...so how is it that Jeremy actually surprised me twice in one day with two different parties???

My sister took me shopping and we wound up getting a bite to eat after at Macaroni Grill - low and behold there were 28 people waiting to surprise me and enjoy a meal! It was awesome! I had friends travel from Oregon and Bellingham and all points in between come - I truly felt loved.

Jeremy got me this "All Hail the Birthday Princess" hat which I got to wear the entire evening. This was a server who serenaded me with an Italian birthday song.

The diner aspect of the event wasn't enough - we then went to Funtasia and played a ton of games (i.e. lazer tag, bumper cars, go-karts, mini-golf etc)

Quite the pile up.

Jeremy got me.

Dave and Cashel in the Go-Kart with Amy and Peter in the background. Peter enjoyed wearing my hat during this event even though it came down and covered his eyes.

Then surprise number 2 - we got home to our house and had family waiting for cake and ice cream! I think I was a bit tired by the time this photo was taken!

Papa John and Nana Lainie babysat Brenna and Jaydon during the festivities. We got home after Jaydon was in bed but Brenna was going strong.

I sure did feel loved. Thank you everyone who came and celebrated with me and especially Jeremy for pulling it off. There were a lot more pictures but I just couldn't get them all on here. It was an amazing 30th birthday!
