Surprise Birthday Dinner



Okay so Bethany ended up coming over around 2:30 this afternoon to finish her hw before we left around 4. We had made plans on Saturday to run errands on Monday (today) and go to Hacienda for desert.

We headed over to Borders where we looked at some books and talked for a while. Before we headed to Hacienda, Bethany read me a Dr. Seus book (thanks girl!) lol.
When we got to Hacienda there were 2 people that were ahead of us but for some reason Bethany just walked right in towards a table. At first I stayed back but decided to go after her to find out what the heck she was doing. She sat down and at first I was so out of it I didn't even realize more of my friends were there.
Kate, Maureen, Jessica, Theresa, and Claire were all seated at the table and said Happy Birthday to me when I sat down (Tom and Jeff came later). It was so nice of them to surprise me like that! I was speechless at first and it was the first time I had the Hacienda people come over and sing their version of Happy Birthday...i got a sombrero (sp?) too. lol
Apparently Bethany was in on this the whole time. She alerted Jessica that I was suspicious of something being planned on my actual birthday so they planned for this ahead of time.
Before Bethany came over this afternoon she sent me some text messages. One asked if we were still on for the errands and Hacienda (and of course I said yes) and the other was asking for my dad's cell phone # because her mom had a question about the lake association. I found out at dinner that it was her talking to my dad to let him know what was up. I didn't even know because my dad even played it off well acting as if it were a business call.
I have such awesome friends! Thanks ya'll - I love you!!!
