We drove to Lubbock this past weekend & surprised my sister for her 30th Birthday! Her actual birthday was on Friday & I think she was kind of disappointed that we just cooked fajitas & ate at the house with our family. But she had no idea what we had planned for Saturday! That morning my Mom & I woke her up early & blindfolded her:
and when we got to our destination, Michelle (her sister-n-law) & Dianna (her mother-n-law) were also there:
Daniel wanted to surprise Natalie with a spa day so she got treated to a facial & massage while the rest of us joined her!
Later that afternoon we did a little shopping around town then met the guys for dinner at Yamagata, one of Natalie's favorite restaurants. The final surprise of the night was when we got home from dinner:
Daniel threw her a surprise party at their house! We all helped with invitations, decorations, food, etc. & some how we were able to pull it off! The theme was:
We all came up with a list of her favorites & all of her decorations, food & presents tied into it. Granted, Natalie is the crafty one in our family & she usually plans all of the parties & does all of the decorating, so our party might not have been as cute as one of hers, but we tried our hardest!
Also, Natalie has never had a cake for her birthday (mostly because she doesn't like cake.....) but she has been dropping strong hits to Daniel that she really wanted one this year since it is a big birthday, so of course he took care of that:
Kason had a fun time at the party because all of his friends were there, but also he got to help blow the candles out!
All in all, I think Natalie had a great day - full of surprises, sweets, treats, family & friends!
Welcome to the Thirties Club Natalie - you finally caught up with the rest of us!
