We started our day with some TX shaped and sized waffles at our hotel!


and of course the guys had to have their morning coffee

then it was time to get ready! we visited Gran for a bit then headed to the library room we reserved to get started decorating. Matthew kept busy by stacking cups!

Gran helping with last minute decorations

dad joined in the fun

i made a time line with 1 event per month of the year mom was born! i learned alot about 1960 while doing this. it was really a neat project.


our centerpieces

the cake and ice cream table

when we saw them drive up we had said to be quiet and told matt to hide. if you look close you can see him laying on the floor under the table!

Mom Jodie and Grayson making their entrance.

Mom and her cake!

It's candle time!

Of course Matthew loved helping blow them out

mom even got some really nice presents


Matthew, Grayson, Miami, Uncle John and Wendy provided the entertainment!

after the party we went to show an apt then show a house

It was a great day and Mom was surprised! A big thanks to everyone who came and helped us celebrate!
