Surprise Parrr-tay!

Despite the passing of the unofficial end of summer know as Labor Day, we were still in party mode this past weekend. Saturday we celebrated my brother's 35th birthday with a surprise party that we threw together in 3 days! It was hilarious seeing my brother blindfolded and helpless. I don't think he had any idea of where he was going, or what he was doing, until Jacob screamed out "who's that" when he walked by the door, which my brother said gave away what was going on. But, supposedly, he was surprised. We all had a good time. The boys played poker and lost their money, while the girls played Loteria (Mexican Bingo) for money and continued on into the hot tub. It was a lot of fun! But I'm so sad party season is over =0(

Speaking of parties, with all of the parties we've had over the past few years, well since my wedding, I've come to realize that I love planning and executing parties/events. And people often come up to me and tell me I should get into it professionally, but I think I like it as a hobby for now. Next BIG party coming up...My niece's sweet 16, and I'm working on it!
