SURPRISE!!!

Yesterday was my girlfriend Holly's surprise birthday party, planned by her hubby Adam!
He had this party in the works for a while, it took all that we had not to tell Holly about it - especially when she thought that her birthday wasn't going to be anything special this year! Boy was she wrong!

Her morning started out at the hair salon, where I treated her to new highlights and hair cut, I know that good hair always makes me happy, so I thought, hmmmm...wouldn't hurt (not saying she had bad hair, just know she has been wishing for it to be done for a little while now) and who doesn't want to be pampered for three hours?! I told her that I knew her and Adam were going out (said I ran into her hubby at school, preschool, both our kids go to the same one, and he told me he was taking her out), little did she know, we were all going to be there!

As soon as we saw Holly get out of the car - we all said, "Ahhhhhh, she looks beautiful!"
The anticipation built as we waited for them to walk to the patio of PF Changs...

...SURPRISE! Thinkin' she was trying to hold in the tears! We all had pretty big ones, if you know Holly, you know that this really meant the world to her! She is well worth it and I am so glad the she had a special evening.

I am pretty sure Holly had NO IDEA that we were all awaiting her arrival. She said the only thing she wondered was why they were taking her and her husband outside to eat?!

Makin' a wish!!!

Holly -
I hope this birthday goes down in the books as one of the best ever!
You looked stunning last night!
Happy Birthday (a little early).
Hope this year brings great things for you and your family!

I'm with you on the hair. I feel like a new woman lately! (Well, until I do it curly.) Wish me luck. : )
